The Evil Emperor Pursues His Wife: Sheng Chong Shifei

Chapter 121 The evil guest arrives at the door
"Your Majesty, please see His Highness the Sixth Highness." Shangguan Qing put away her flying sword and stepped forward to salute.

"Shangguan is being polite." Chu Qianyun bowed his hand in return.

Shangguan Qing invited Chu Qianyun into the public hall, served refreshments, the tea was sweet tea shared by the craftsman, and the desserts were cream cakes, donuts, and sugar-crust cookies brought by Shangguan Qing from home.

Ever since he had white sugar, Shangguan Qing refused to treat his food badly. He directed Zhu Qing and Nian Ci to make all kinds of delicious snacks in the small kitchen.

Smelling the sweet smell of the dim sum, Chu Qianyun couldn't help but took a piece to taste, the milky aroma melted in his mouth, there was no smell of mutton, only a faint milky aroma.

After eating a small piece of each, Chu Qianyun resisted to stop, praised the delicious taste, picked up the teacup to clear the milky fragrance between his lips and teeth, and asked, "When will the craftsman make such a snack?" , even more unique than those in the palace."

"I brought this from home. Apart from being greedy for money, the idiots in the craftsman's department have forgotten all about their jobs."

Chu Qianyun didn't answer immediately, she picked up the teacup and continued to drink tea, Shangguan Qing ordered: "Ban Xiang, send some snacks to His Highness Sixth Prince's residence tomorrow, and invite the concubines to taste it."

"No." Banxiang stood up and agreed.

The lotus leaf not far away didn't dare to look up, she didn't dare to look at the master's face, since the caramel washing method was leaked, she hasn't sent any news to Chu Qianyun.

Chu Qianyun was disappointed, but also felt that He Ye was doing the right thing. His feelings for Shangguan Qing became more and more complicated, and his whole heart was twisted.

"Thank you for your suggestion. I am here this time to ask for something."

"Your Majesty the Sixth Highness, please be polite. If you have something to do, please give me instructions. I will do my best."

Chu Qianyun smiled wryly in her heart, you put on a businesslike posture, it would be difficult to intercede.

At this time, there was a commotion outside, and an official announced loudly: "Princess Anyuan is here." Someone stopped: "Your Highness, go this way, the public hall is checking the accounts, you really can't go in." Someone else angrily: "Let me Come on, don't block His Highness's way."

The noise was getting closer and closer, Shangguan Qing apologized: "The evil guest came to the door, and the Sixth Highness laughed."

"An Yuan's temperament still hasn't changed." Chu Qianyun was relieved on the contrary, it was getting better slowly.

Princess Anyuan's voice quickly rang out at the door: "The craftsman has changed his manager and stopped working. I want to see who is making such a big show."

Shangguan Qing got up, Zhu Qing immediately came to help her, Shangguan Qing whispered to Nian Ci: "Take the snacks down and share with the sisters, and the craftsman will prepare them."

"No." Nianci understood.

Chu Qianyun frowned and smiled wryly. Nian Ci had completely fallen for Shangguan Qing. She had thrown out the secret order of the prince's mansion several times. The people she led were not far away from Shangguan Qing. They are all orphans, and many methods can't be used, which makes people feel like a mouse.

With Zhu Qing's support, Shangguan Qing walked out of the public hall, and saw An Yuan standing in the courtyard with a group of maids and women, looking at everything in the courtyard with disgust.

"Who I thought it was, it turned out to be you." An Yuan wanted to be more cautious, but when she saw Shangguan Qing, she couldn't hold back her anger anymore.

This woman robbed her third elder brother and ruined her family's business that has been in business for hundreds of years, and now she is intervening in the craftsman's department and going against her in everything, it is simply unreasonable.

The Zhenbei Palace has lived in the northwest for a long time. In addition to controlling the military and political power, it also controls the business along the northwest road. Among them, the Ma family accounts for half of the dividends in the luxury goods market sold domestically and abroad, and the high-end goods of the Ma family mainly come from the production of the craftsman department. Private goods, she can't let Shangguan Qing cut off another source of income for the family.The 30 iron cavalrymen in the Northwest are fed by horses, which is a large number. To maintain combat effectiveness and control the hearts of the people, in addition to the full monthly salary, the rewards of solar terms during wartime are also indispensable.The Ma family maintains a semi-independent strong position in the northwest, so some money will not be given by the court, and must be raised by the Ma family.This is the price one must pay for entitlement.

Shangguan Qing asked softly: "Did An Yuan come to the Craftsman for something?"

"It's okay, whoever comes here." An Yuan walked in, and when he entered the room, he could smell a sweet fragrance.

Only then did I realize that the people who read the account books were all women, and each of them had a plate of snacks beside them, with all kinds of colors.

An Lu noticed that An Yuan was looking at her dim sum, and immediately took the plate under the table. Shangguan Qing saw An Yuan's eyebrows twitch, and praised An Lu in her heart, and decided to go back and reward her with a white chocolate shortbread.

An Yuan sat down in the guest seat, saw the ordinary refreshments served, and hated Shangguan Qing to death. She coughed and angrily picked up the teacup to drink tea. The maid behind her took out an account book and handed it to Shangguan Qing, saying: "Before, our palace ordered a batch of utensils from the Craftsmanship Department. I heard that Shangguan proposed to pick up people, so I came to check with Tiju. Here is the volume of the goods."

Zhu Qing went to pick up the scroll, but the other party withdrew his hand and said sternly, "This is for the Shangguan, what are you?"

Without needing Shangguan Qing to speak, Zhu Qing raised her hand and slapped him across the face, turning the opponent around twice, then grabbed the scroll and flipped through it randomly.

"You...you..." An Yuan's face turned pale with anger.

She knew that Shangguan Qing was a barbarian who liked to fight and kill, but she didn't expect Shangguan Qing's maid to be so barbaric, she was a bunch of shrews.

Zhu Qing closed the scroll and said: "The one who signed this scroll with you is the former Tiju Lu Shiyou. He is suspected of misappropriating huge amounts of public funds, corruption, fraud, and dereliction of duty. He has been brought under control because he belongs to..."

When Zhu Qing said this, she forgot her lines, and Shangguan Qing raised her teacup to remind softly: "Economic crimes."

Zhu Qing immediately continued loudly: "Because it is a major economic crime, the accounts handled by Lu Shiyou have been sealed up. We have no right to check or check before the three courts are convicted. So sorry, please go back and wait for news."

An Yuan slapped the table and said angrily: "Your craftsman took a deposit."

Zhu Qing still replied calmly: "Sorry, because the account has been sealed, we can't check it."

"Isn't your account book here?" An Yuan pointed to the mountain of account books in the public hall and asked.

Zhu Qing said: "Reporting to Your Highness, here are only the current accounts of the Craftsman Division, and there are no contract accounts. If His Highness does not believe it, you can submit an application to the Three Legal Division and send an accountant to supervise us to sort out the accounts."

"You guys are deceiving people too much. Could it be that there is no law in the Craftsmanship Division?" An Yuan stood up and glared at Shangguan Qing angrily.

She came here this time to deceive Shangguanqing. According to the previous rules, the goods on her scroll can only be taken to the third floor, and the payment she gave is also low. There is a secret account, which has been destroyed.

Neither the crown prince nor the eldest princess came out to speak, obviously because they wanted to renege on their debts, and if she wanted to recover her losses, she had to swindle money from Shangguan Qing.

"Why don't you speak, are you guilty?"
