Secret agent crossing: Overbearing prince's favorite concubine

Chapter 171

But Mo Qingli can't plan that way, she aims to get into the Luo family's caravan. Facing Steward Luo's request, Mo Qingli always smiles lightly, "Our family's prescriptions are not for sale, this time I just helped my sister Once, I have to hurry, so there will be no further delay."

After finishing speaking, Mo Qingli didn't miss it, and left directly.

Housekeeper Luo looked at her leaving back with a playful expression on his face. He waved his hand and asked someone to follow her secretly. If he can master the method of pickling vegetables, this person will be of great use.

Mo Qingli went around and led them back to the Sheriff's Mansion.

Steward Luo was even more puzzled when he heard the report from his subordinates that he was from the Sheriff's Mansion.

Those two people thought that Mo Qingli was from the sheriff's mansion, and after following them to the sheriff's mansion, they hurried back to report the news.

This made Mo Qingli a lot more convenient. She took advantage of the opportunity to go out to buy ingredients and rushed to Yongxing Bank to give her first task.

"I want you to send experts to burn the inventory of the small farm in the north of the city, especially the jars, and smash them into pieces." Mo Qingli said.

The treasurer of Yongxing Bank immediately set about making arrangements.

After the confession, Mo Qingli also heaved a sigh of relief, and returned home leisurely to continue working as a little cook.

"My sister has worked hard all the way, is there anything interesting?" Pomegranate hastily squeezed Mo Qingli's shoulders and legs, and she came to cook in the past few days, but the wife has changed her attitude towards her a lot, and she doesn't mention the things that she was asked to serve in the past , seems to have escaped, and Du Mo Qingli is even more grateful.

Mo Qingli said lightly: "Everyone is busy on their way, how can there be any fun?"

Just as he was talking, the servant girl next to the madam said, "Miss Shi Lan, madam wants to see you."

Shi Liu worriedly asked: "It's fine, why does Madam want to see you, Sister Shi Lan, you have to be careful."

Mo Qingli bent her lips and smiled. The efficiency of Yongxing Bank is indeed very high. Now the sauerkraut in the farm must have been basically destroyed. These sauerkraut is extremely cheap on land, but it is very difficult to go to sea, so Steward Luo can't sit. Stay, come to the door yourself.

She followed the servant girl beside the madam to the main hall, quickly knelt down and saluted and said: "My servant has seen the madam."

The sheriff's wife looked at her, and said with a smile, "Look, but this one?"

Housekeeper Luo is now as big as a fight. A group of robbers entered the village the night before yesterday. They looked like local snakes. They were just for robbery and did not damage the rice and noodles. The sauerkraut jar damaged more than half of the sauerkraut. Now that the date of going to sea is approaching, when such a thing happened, all he could think of was this woman who was said to be able to make sauerkraut overnight, so he rushed to the sheriff early in the morning government.

Steward Luo took a closer look, and Mo Qingli raised her eyes at the right time, and saw a panicked look on Steward Luo's face for a moment.

Housekeeper Luo said with a smile, "Little girl, don't come here without any problems."

"How did you find this place? I never told you that I'm from the Sheriff's Mansion." Mo Qingli asked curiously.

Housekeeper Luo smiled and said, "I've never been able to find anyone I'm looking for. Right now, I'm busy and need the girl's help."

Mo Qingli said: "You are really persistent. You have said that it is my family's prescription, and I will not sell it."

"You two talk about it, but I'm confused, Shi Lan, tell me what's going on?" the magistrate's wife said.

Mo Qingli intentionally simplified what happened that day. It was nothing more than that Sister-in-law Liu's jar of sauerkraut was broken.

Mo Qingli looked helpless, "Isn't this embarrassing for me, that prescription is really from my ancestors, and it's not for sale."

Housekeeper Luo looked at the sheriff's wife. When he came, he specially prepared some rare jewelry for the sheriff's wife, so that the sheriff's wife couldn't deny his face.

The magistrate's wife said: "Shi Lan, what is a prescription worth? As long as you ask for a price, I can give you any price. It's better than just living on a monthly basis."

"Madam, don't dare to disobey. If that's the case, then I'll sell you the recipe for 100 taels of silver." Mo Qingli said reluctantly, pretending not to dare to disobey.

100 taels.The maids around were all speechless, that was the sum of their monthly money for two or three years, and they didn't expect it to be obtained so easily by a little cook.

100 taels is really not much, Housekeeper Luo has already sat down and bleeds, I didn't expect this little maid to look neither humble nor overbearing, she is so timid, 100 taels of silver is not enough for the pearl on the nobile he gave to the magistrate's wife Well, Housekeeper Luo nodded with a smile and said, "I can give you the money, but we don't have much time, and I want you to soak the sauerkraut yourself."

"What? Make it yourself?" Mo Qingli opened her eyes wide in shock.

Housekeeper Luo looked at the sheriff's wife. They had agreed before that for the convenience of pickling sauerkraut, they don't have time to test it now, and they couldn't stand the test, so they had to make a decision immediately.

The county magistrate's wife seems to be in a bit of a dilemma, let Shi Lan go, she is reluctant to let Shi Lan's good craftsmanship, if she doesn't let it go, I'm afraid she will offend the Shanghai Luo family, which is famous for its wealth, compared to the two, the appetite is still suppressed, What's more, the pomegranates in the kitchen are also pretty good now.

The county magistrate's wife said: "Shi Lan, since there is indeed a need here, I don't need you to serve me for the time being, and you can go to work with the housekeeper."

Mo Qingli pretended to cry and knelt in front of the sheriff's wife and said, "Ma'am, how can this servant not want Madam?"

Over there, Housekeeper Luo kept smiling and said: "Don't be sad, girl, I just marinated a batch, and then sent the girl back, it won't waste much time."

"Since it's just pickling a batch, I'll go back with you to pickle it now, won't it be fine when I go back to the house tomorrow morning?" Mo Qingli pretended to be happy and said.

Housekeeper Luo said with a sullen face, "No, we are short on time. We are going to go to sea tomorrow morning. You must come with me."

Mo Qingli became anxious, and said excitedly: "I didn't sign the contract of sale, so I don't want to go with you."

Housekeeper Luo said indifferently: "But you have signed a contract with the Sheriff's Mansion. During this period of time, you are a bonded slave. If you come with me, you can still enjoy the service of the princess. As long as you put It’s just that the sauerkraut is pickled. This way you can make money, and your family’s recipes won’t be given away for nothing.”

With the support of the magistrate's wife, Mo Qingli has nothing to refuse as a maid, and of course she doesn't intend to refuse, because she just needs an opportunity to sneak into the Luo family in Shanghai.

The maple leaves in the imperial garden were getting redder, and after an autumn rain, most of them fell sparsely.

Xia Xiangling had no time to appreciate such a beautiful scenery, she hurried in after Xing'an was passed on.

"What's the matter? Did the cat bite the mouse's tail?" Jun Shecang wore a dragon robe, the king was full of majesty, but when he saw Xia Xiangling, there was still a gleam of tenderness in his eyes, and he was still willing to tease her.

Xia Xiangling didn't joke with him, and sent it up and said in a low voice: "Yongcheng's secret letter said that someone holding a white jade dragon pattern jade pendant entered the store and used the store's staff to help her rob a village. It was Mo Qingli's handwriting, and she actually arrived in Yongcheng."

Jun Shecang took it immediately, and Xia Xiangling saw him listless, but he was so excited when he heard about Mo Qingli's news, and couldn't help but feel a little sour in his heart. Sure enough, even though Mo Qingli left, he still cared about her all the time.

After reading it, Jun Shecang looked a little dignified, even a little angry, Xia Xiangling asked cautiously: "What's wrong?" As soon as she got the letter, she immediately entered the palace and handed it to Jun Shecang. Although it was written for her, Xia Xiangling also knew the rules , to avoid Jun Shecang's unnecessary dissatisfaction, it was too late to unpack and give it to Jun Shecang.

Jun She Cang held back his anger and said, "She actually wants to enter Luo's house."

"What?" Xia Xiangling's complexion changed drastically, and she said in surprise: "Although Luo Zishang is dead, the Luo family on the sea seems to have disappeared overnight, and it should have been fully prepared long ago. The line has been cut off, but the Luo family on the sea is a more mysterious and complicated place, and none of our spies can get in, so how did she get in?"

Jun Shecang sullenly said, "She can't do anything, and I don't know where she got such courage. I'm going to find her back."

Xia Xiangling looked terrified. Compared with Mo Qingli's actions, Jun Shecang's decision made her more unable to resist. She said eagerly: "The emperor thinks twice, you are in charge of the government now, but you can't be careless in the slightest. What are you doing at this time? If I can go find her, the Luo family in Shanghai is very powerful, so I should go."

"No, you have to pay more attention to the money houses in the capital. The Luo family's commercial lines on land will not be broken so cleanly. You have to prevent them from using the banner to make a comeback." Jun She said calmly.

"Then what about the government?" Xia Xiangling asked helplessly seeing that Jun Shecang had made up his mind to go.

Jun She Cang said: "You don't have to worry about this, I have my own opinion."

Xia Xiangling had no choice but to resign.

Jun Shecang sat quietly for a while, and called out: "Xing'an, go and invite Master Duan Ziyan to come."

Xing'an said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, Mr. Duan said he has been ill for three days and has not gone to court. I'm afraid he won't be able to come at this time."

Jun Shecang kicked the stool away, and said angrily, "In three days, he should have recovered. If he doesn't come, let's go out."

The front of the Duan Mansion is desolate, and it looks a bit depressed, but only the gatekeepers know how many people came to visit the doctor in the past few days. Duan Ziyan found out the case of the murder of the late emperor, and defeated the king of the sea, Luo. Zishang, now that the new emperor is on the throne, Master Duan doesn't seem to have much real power, but he must be the person the emperor trusts the most, so he was able to hide it for so long at the beginning, and after a low investigation, naturally many people came to see the doctor. It's almost there.

"Stop, this is not a place for ordinary people to enter." Maybe there were more high-ranking officials who came to visit, and the gatekeeper at the mere back door did not consciously speak with momentum.
