The Pastoral Empress Merchant

Chapter 779 Poison him to death!
Originally, he planned to go to his elder brother's place the next day to settle the matter of the garden, but because the eldest prince sent such a gift temporarily, Ling Muhua suddenly lost his mind, and instead turned around and went to the eldest prince.

"Eldest Prince, what do you mean by this? I have already followed your request. What else are you dissatisfied with?" Ling Muhua asked in front of the Eldest Prince.

The eldest prince had already expected that Ling Muhua would not be able to resist coming over to question him when he sent the things over. He sat on the upper seat in the living room, looked at Ling Muhua's gloomy face, smiled coldly and said: "Are you sure you have followed the rules? I did what the prince requested, instead of having some small thoughts secretly, wanting to play tricks on the prince? The news you sent is simply false news, you treat the prince as a fool!"

Ling Muhua was so angry that his chest heaved up and down, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Since when did I spread false news to you? Xiaoxi is indeed planning to use a skin care product to participate in the imperial business election, this is the truth!"

"That's impossible! Is it that easy to run for the Imperial Business? Judging by Mu Jinxi's personality, how could she be so stupid as to use any skin care products to participate in the Royal Business election?" The eldest prince obviously didn't believe it.

Ling Muhua sneered and said: "What do you know, if the skin care products she made are qualified to participate in the imperial business election, don't you ask your concubine to be clear? You think the skin care products she made are just Ordinary skin care products? Don’t you know what kind of things Heng Fuxuan bought? If you don’t even know this, I really don’t know what else you can do to defeat the Mu Palace!”

"Ling Muhua! Don't go too far! Don't push yourself just because this prince tolerated you!" The eldest prince was stabbed in the scar in his heart by Ling Muhua's words, and became angry from embarrassment.

Ling Muhua didn't feel any fear at all, and said sarcastically: "It's your eldest prince who is going too far! You did such an outrageous thing and forced me to betray my friend to work for you, but I sacrificed my feelings. You questioned the news that you sent me. False, you still used this method to warn me, is this the promise you said, First Prince? Is this your promise?"

"you!"

The two faced each other fiercely in the living room, and neither of them was willing to back down half a step.

Ling Muhua's behavior made the eldest prince very angry, and he felt that his majesty had been seriously challenged. If it wasn't for Ling Muhua's value to be used, he really wanted to kill him immediately and let him run rampant in front of him!

"If the eldest prince still doubts like this, he should just throw away my mother's ashes. At most, I, an unfilial son, will die in the future and then go to Jiuquan to make amends to her. I believe my mother understands what I do. It belongs to my son! I just don’t know if the eldest prince’s affairs can go on smoothly without my good pawn! After all, the eldest prince has taken a lot of money from me!” Ling Muhua sneered Said.

The members of the Luo family are indeed extremely greedy. Ever since he was forced to agree to work for the First Prince, the amount of money that the First Prince has taken away from him in various names is tens of thousands of taels!I really don't feel embarrassed at all, so righteous, so brazen!But no matter how weak his family is, it won't take long for him to be wiped out by his insatiable greed, right?He really regarded himself as a cash cow for making money!
The eldest prince's face turned red and black at the words of Ling Muhua, he was both angry and ashamed, because what Ling Muhua said was not all wrong, it didn't mean that without Ling Muhua he couldn't do anything, but without Ling Muhua as a spy, it really is It will be a lot of trouble, he has already thought about it, if there is really no better way, then use the most direct, simple and rude way to destroy Juelin!As long as Jue Lin is dead, all the obstacles standing in front of him will not be a problem. He is the eldest son of the royal father, and it is justifiable to inherit the throne!But if Jue Lin was around, as long as he said a few words in front of his father, it would be enough to influence his father's decision.

He couldn't guarantee that Juelin didn't know that he did what happened a few years ago, maybe he knew about it a long time ago, and now he is waiting for the opportunity to take revenge on himself!He absolutely couldn't let Jue Lin make the first move. If he told his father that he sent someone to assassinate him a few years ago, even if there was no direct evidence, his father would believe it!

This is what the eldest prince hates the most. No matter what Jue Lin says, the emperor will believe it, but his son is doing something wrong. This is what he hates Jue Lin the most, because he is worse than his son. Be like a son!
But he didn't want to think about it, thinking about it, if Jue Lin knew about what happened back then, why didn't there be any movement, instead he acted as if nothing had happened?As long as he is willing to think about it, he will understand that Jue Lin doesn't have any bad intentions for him. Instead, he himself has been making a cocoon, digging into a dead end, digging deeper and deeper...

If he can be like the second prince, then nothing will happen.It's just that he has hidden evil thoughts hidden in his heart, so he instinctively feels that others are the same, because he has a guilty conscience and is afraid that others will act first and make himself suffer.

The eldest prince stared at Ling Muhua firmly, and fell into a dilemma.

According to Ling Muhua's statement, the information he provided may not be false, because Mu Jinxi's actions are always tricky and unexpected.It's not that he didn't know about Heng Fuxuan's affairs, but he just didn't take it seriously. Those are women's stuff, what big things can they accomplish?Besides, there is no such thing as good rouge and gouache, but there has never been anyone who has become an imperial merchant by relying on this!Not to mention the imperial merchants, there are few family-style ones. This can only be a small profit. A big family will not only focus on this small profit.

In addition, Mu Jinxi hadn't made any big moves, so he didn't care even more. How much trouble a woman can make, a woman should stay in the back house and take care of affairs honestly!But who knew that Mu Jinxi was going to run for the imperial business election!After the news came out, he began to pay attention seriously. He was not afraid of Mu Jinxi, but afraid of Mu Palace, Jue Lin, and Father!
According to his father's love for Jue Lin, if Mu Jinxi participates in the election of the Imperial Merchant, his father might be favoritism and appoint Mu Jinxi as the candidate of the Imperial Merchant!Father can really do this kind of thing!If this is the case, wouldn't Jue Lin's power become even more powerful?Even if he becomes the prince or the emperor in the future, he will not be able to suppress him!It is impossible for him to let such a huge threat exist under his nose!

After a long time, the eldest prince finally calmed down his boiling emotions, sat down again, and asked, "Since Mu Jinxi plans to use these to participate in the imperial business election, what is her specific plan? Have you found out?" Such a question It means that he believed Ling Muhua's words.

Ling Muhua accepted it when he saw it, but his face was still cold, and he said: "She probably doesn't have any specific plans yet. When I went to see her that day, she was still worrying about finding a suitable garden. This is the most basic thing. I didn't find any. A suitable garden, she will not proceed to the next step."

The eldest prince frowned, "She is looking for Yuanpu, what is she looking for Yuanpu for?"

Ling Muhua glanced at the eldest prince with disdain, and said softly: "She needs to find a place to supply raw materials, which are used by her to produce those skin care products. The Fangrong Pavilion under her name, Heng Fuxuan produces all her own The plantation under her name provides it, which is safe and does not have to worry about when the supply will break and cause unnecessary troubles, and it is also more healthy. She wants to participate in the imperial business election, so she must be cautious and cautious, so she has been Pick the right garden."

After hearing Ling Muhua's words, the eldest prince half understood, thought for a while and said: "Tell me more carefully."

Ling Muhua paused, endured it, and had to explain the reasons carefully. Ling Muhua thought that he was just curious, wanted to understand clearly, and then found a suitable place to attack. Unexpectedly, after he finished speaking, the eldest prince After a moment of silence, he said: "If this is the case, it is a good opportunity for this prince. This prince has an aide, and he has a garden under his name, which is planted with medicinal materials and some precious flowers and plants. You can find someone Take Mu Jinxi to take a look at the opportunity, if she is satisfied, let her sign the contract, if she is not satisfied, you can find a way to persuade her to sign the contract!"

Ling Muhua was taken aback, he didn't expect the eldest prince to make such a sudden move, he asked with some difficulty: "You mean..."

The eldest prince glanced at Ling Muhua meaningfully and said: "Didn't you just say that she wanted to find a suitable garden to produce products for the imperial business election? That's just right, as long as she uses this prince's, it will be equal to my own garden." The prince holds half of her lifeline, and if there is a little accident at that time, it is estimated that her running for the imperial business will be ruined, and this prince will be able to defeat her without any effort, don't you think?"

Ling Muhua quickly put away the worry on his face, frowned for a while and said honestly: "This is indeed a good idea."

If Xiaoxi really uses this plantation land, it will be tantamount to putting the lifeblood of the product in the hands of the eldest prince. Even if Xiaoxi's so-called experiment is successful and she produces what she wants, as long as the eldest prince The prince's tampering with this plantation, even if it simply destroys the crops in the plantation, is enough to destroy Xiao Xi's entire plan.If there is no raw material, there is no way to produce, so there is no way to participate in the election of the imperial merchants, and Xiaoxi will lose at that time!
The eldest prince did not expect Ling Muhua to say that the idea was good. He thought he would find an excuse to refute him no matter what. Could it be that he really gave up?

"Do you really think this is a good idea?" The First Prince couldn't help asking suspiciously.

Ling Muhua glanced at the eldest prince, and the corners of his lips curled coldly, "I agree that you doubt it, but I cannot say that you also doubt it, eldest prince, are you a little too suspicious? Don't the eldest prince know that there is a saying called Do not use the suspect, but not the employer? If the eldest prince still doubts me like this in the future, it is better not to use it, and it will save you from feeling uncomfortable, and I will also feel uncomfortable! If the eldest prince can show mercy and return my mother's ashes I, I can't thank you enough!"

The eldest prince's face darkened, "I advise you not to think that you can secretly take back your mother's ashes from this prince. If you dare to do some small tricks in private, the one that this prince will give you will not be you." The ashes that were dug out of your mother's grave are your mother's ashes!"

"Since the eldest prince knows that he has grasped my lifeline, why do you doubt me again and again! I just want my mother's ashes to be safe and sound! Can a friend be as good as my mother? Eldest prince, you think too well of me! Now, don’t forget that I’m also a member of the Luo family. Naturally, I have the unique selfishness and indifference of the Luo family in my blood! How could I disregard my mother’s ashes for the sake of others? This is the last time I show my Attitude, if the First Prince still doesn't believe it in the future, then please let the First Prince do as he pleases!"

The eldest prince pursed his lips and remained silent, Ling Muhua ignored him, and said directly: "Since the eldest prince has a plantation, please give it to me as soon as possible, and I can bring Xiaoxi over there at any time."

The eldest prince thought for a while and said: "You follow me." After speaking, he got up and walked out, Ling Muhua followed closely behind.

Although he has the plantation land owned by the eldest prince, Ling Muhua still wants to persuade his elder brother to lease his garden to Xiaoxi. Firstly, this will not make Xiaoxi suspicious, and secondly, it is an extra layer of protection. At that time, if the eldest prince really played tricks on the plantation land, Xiao Xi would not be too passive, at least there was a way out.Originally, he said that it only took one day to finish the matter, but because the eldest prince's kick in the middle delayed the time for one day, Ling Muhua left the city without stopping the next day.

That old man seemed to have expected that Ling Muhua would definitely come, so he was not surprised when he saw him, but just glanced at him lightly.

Ling Muhua is not a person who likes to beat around the bush. After sitting down and drinking a cup of tea, he asked straight to the point: "Brother, what happened to you the day before yesterday? Why did you suddenly change your mind? Didn't you already promise me? Xi’s impression is pretty good too, isn’t it?”

The elder brother was silent for a while before he said: "You don't need to say any more, I promise to give you the garden."

Ling Muhua was stunned for a moment, blinked before realizing it, and asked uncertainly: "Brother, is what you said true? Are you really willing to lease the garden to us?"

The old man shook his head and said, "It's not a lease, it's a sale to you."

Ling Muhua was even more shocked, sell?sell them?He must have heard it wrong, right?My brother has always cherished this garden of his own, and usually takes care of it like his own child. He is not happy even if strangers want to go in and take a look, but now he actually wants to sell it to them?
"Brother, you, are you okay? Why did you suddenly say that you want to sell the garden to us? Didn't you agree to rent it before?" Ling Muhua asked a little bit.

The old man gave him a sideways glance, and said angrily, "What? Isn't it good to sell it to you? If you sell it to you, you will be the ones to make decisions. You can do whatever you want. What else do you dislike?"

Ling Muhua hurriedly shook his head and said, "I don't dislike it, it's just... You have always treasured this garden, why are you suddenly willing to sell it?"

When he asked this question, the elder brother fell silent, and a complicated and incomprehensible look quickly flashed across his face, like nostalgia and pain.After a long time, he sighed slightly and said, "Don't ask me about the rest. In short, I want to sell it to you. Do you want it or not?"

Ling Muhua responded quickly: "Yes, of course I do. When Xiaoxi left the day before yesterday, she was worried that she might have done something to offend you unintentionally, so you suddenly changed your mind. If she knew that you changed your mind, If you decide to sell the garden to us, you will be very happy."

The elder brother opened his mouth and hesitated for a moment before asking: "Is Xiao Xi really the little princess of Prince Mu's Mansion?"

Ling Muhua wondered why he would ask such a question, but still said: "Yes, she is the concubine of the young prince Juelin." After a pause, he added another sentence. "It's probably the only woman."

"How do you say that?" The elder brother seemed a little surprised by his statement.

Ling Muhua smiled and said: "You don't know, Xiaoxi is a very capable girl, and she firmly occupies the heart of the little prince Juelin. Before their wedding, Juelin said that there will only be Xiaoxi in this life. , will not take any woman in the backyard."

The elder brother opened his mouth slightly in surprise, and blurted out, "Then the old concubine agrees?"

Ling Muhua didn't notice anything strange, nodded his head and said: "The old concubine is a very open-minded person, and she also likes Xiaoxi, the granddaughter-in-law very much. Besides, Xiaoxi has already given birth to two sons for the Mu Palace, and her status is already high. Once it is stable, no one will have any objections, even the emperor turned a blind eye."

"Yes, she is such a person. She was very special when she was young, and she was different from the girls in the capital..." The old man couldn't help but smiled, and said something with a sigh, his eyes flashed with nostalgia.

This time Ling Muhua didn't miss him, caught the expression on his face, and couldn't help but asked in doubt: "Brother, you, who are you talking about... the old princess? Do you know the old princess?"

Brother knows the old princess?Impossible, he has known his brother for so long, and he has never heard him mention anyone, let alone a woman.He originally thought that the elder brother had something to do with the Prince Mu's mansion, so the attitude changed so much when he heard him mention the Prince Mu's mansion the day before yesterday, but now it seems... Could it be that the person that the elder brother knows is the old princess , That's why when I heard about Prince Mu's Mansion, I thought of the old concubine, so I had such an abnormal reaction?

But how did my brother know the old concubine?No matter how you look at these two people, they are people who can't hit the pole in eight lifetimes!If my brother really knows the old concubine, why hasn't he visited the city for so many years?Didn't even mention it?

Seeing the expression on the old brother's face, Ling Muhua didn't know why a ridiculous idea popped up in his heart. Could it be that the old brother had some emotional entanglements with the old concubine when he was young?So after so many years, did you show such a strange expression when you mentioned the old concubine?It's just that this idea flashed through his mind, because he felt that it seemed impossible, and it seemed impossible for these two people to be related at all.

As far as he knows, my brother has lived here alone for decades. After he met him, he has never seen anyone come here to look for him, and he asked him why he was here alone. Living, my brother said it was because he was tired of the colorful world outside... Thinking about it, Ling Muhua was also confused.

Not to mention the elder brother, but the old concubine, who is also a well-known figure in the capital, and she can be regarded as a legendary figure among the women in the capital. The old prince Mu died when he was very young. Prince Mu was able to be alone, and before holding up Prince Mu's mansion, she was the one woman who supported Prince Mu's mansion, not to mention that after Prince Mu also died young, she raised Jue Lin with her unusually resolute temperament.

The current status of Prince Mu's Mansion cannot be separated from the old concubine. She is independent, daring to act, strong and patient, and bold and decisive. She has both the virtues that traditional women should have and the open-mindedness that traditional women do not have.If there was no old concubine, the Mu Palace would have been gone long ago. Even if Jue Lin was the son of the former emperor, even if the emperor was extremely protective of Jue Lin... But if the Mu Palace is gone, the meaning of Juelin's existence may be gone, then His identity will also be extremely embarrassing, and there will be no little prince Juelin who is famous in the capital today, or even Da Chu.

So what does such an old concubine have to do with my brother...?
Ling Muhua was still struggling with the relationship between his old brother and the old concubine, but the person who had calmed down here smiled and asked, "Mu Wang's mansion is developing very well now, right? Although I am not in the capital Living here, but I have heard about the reputation of the young prince Juelin, so there is no need to worry about the future of Prince Mu's residence."

Ling Muhua glanced at him and nodded his head and said: "That's true, Jue Lin looks harmless, but in fact he is not something ordinary people can provoke, and he has won the emperor's favor, now it seems that in the next few decades The Limu Palace will definitely not be in any danger. It's just that after a few decades, if the emperor abdicates when he is old, if the throne is passed on to the First Prince, then the Mu Palace will probably be liquidated."

Speaking of the eldest prince, Ling Muhua had a mocking smile on his face and his eyes were cold.

The elder brother was startled, and frowned, "Is there a festival between the eldest prince and Prince Mu's residence?"

"It's not that there is a festival with Mu Wangfu, it is a festival with Jue Lin. The eldest prince hates Jue Lin for taking away his honor from the emperor, and now he wants to put him to death!" No one deliberately concealed anything, not even his own identity.

The elder brother couldn't help but become serious when he heard this, "Could it be that the eldest prince targeted the young prince Juelin because the emperor loved and valued him too much? Could this be too much, too small? Isn't the eldest prince the emperor's eldest son? If there is no accident, then he will be the emperor of Dachu in the future, how can he be an emperor with this little consideration?"

This is totally not the magnanimity and heart that a Mingjun should have. If the eldest prince is such a person and inherits the throne in the future, wouldn't the court be in chaos?Aren't the people of Dachu going to suffer?
Ling Muhua seemed to have found a suitable person to confide in, and he told the eldest prince's actions without hesitation. Of course, he didn't say anything about being forced to become the spy's eyeliner. If he said this, he would definitely be blamed Yes, it will also wear clothes.

The elder brother's expression darkened immediately when he heard it, and he murmured in disbelief: "The current emperor's eldest son is actually such a despicable and vicious person? It seems that he has inherited the unique despicable and viciousness of the Luo family... "

After finishing speaking, he sighed and said: "Fortunately, you didn't grow up in Luo's family, otherwise you would have grown crooked."

Ling Muhua twitched the corners of his mouth, thinking that this joke was not funny at all. Although it was true, he felt that even if he really grew up in the Luo family, he would not be crooked, because no matter how kind and upright he was, he couldn't tell right from wrong. His mother, with his mother around, he won't grow crooked.

"Could it be that the young prince Juelin just passively waits for the eldest prince to do something to him? But if the eldest prince is really established as the prince and inherits the throne in the future, no matter how powerful the Mu Palace is, he will not be able to match the imperial power. At that time, the Prince Mu's Mansion may only suffer disaster!" The elder brother actually looked very worried.

Ling Muhua pouted, with a helpless expression on his face, "Otherwise, what else can we do? If he doesn't do this kind of thing, it's not easy for Jue Lin to deal with him! And the eldest prince is used to pretending to be a good person, if Jue Lin If you attack him rashly... I'm afraid you won't get any advantage."

The old man snorted softly and said: "I just look down on you people, you are procrastinating in doing things, this kind of thing is either your death or his death! Don't you understand the principle of first strike first? As long as it is handled cleanly Clean, who can do anything to you?"

Ling Muhua was upset, look at what he said, it seemed that dealing with the eldest prince was such a simple matter.

"You said it lightly, so tell me, is there any good way?" If he can come up with a useful way, he can just kneel down and call him daddy!
The elder brother waved his palm, and said lightly: "Just sprinkle the poison on it, and the poison will kill him once and for all!"

"..."
