The reborn daughter of the Marquis Mansion takes over the world

On this day, Lin Wanqiao and several business ladies came to Xiyuan to look for Ning Ziqing.

Because she had stood up for several brothel girls, she had caused a lot of controversy in the city of Kyoto, causing many ladies and ladies from high-ranking families to be very dissatisfied, and they all canceled orders from Embroidery Hefang.

In addition, some embroiderers from Xiuhefang were poached by other garment shops at high prices.

Today, Xiuhefang's business has plummeted, and almost no one cares about it.

Lin Wanqiao and others sat around in the Nuan Pavilion to make suggestions for Ning Ziqing, hoping to help her save the business of Xiuhefang.

However, Ning Ziqing didn't care about this. She looked at the worried people and smiled to comfort them: "Sisters, don't worry about me. Xiuhefang will go through this sooner or later. After His Majesty's birthday, , I will find another way to revive Xiuhefang."

One of the ladies said angrily: "Miss Third, you are too kind. Fortunately, you taught Mrs. Xiang'an's embroidery techniques to those embroidery ladies without reservation. Now that the embroidery workshop is encountering difficulties, they will Seeing the money and leaving in a hurry, they are really ungrateful villains."

His words made even the servants serving in the room feel worthless for Ning Ziqing, and even secretly murmured that their lady was too stupid.

Lin Wanqiao listened to the young ladies accusing the embroiderers without saying a word. Although she was also angry, seeing Ning Ziqing's indifferent expression, she must have already made a plan, so she said nothing.

After a while, Ning Ziqing thanked them gratefully for their injustice, and ordered his servants to treat them with various foods brought by the caravan.

"We've been talking for a long time. Sisters, you must be tired. Let's eat something and take a rest."

Lin Wanqiao couldn't help but tease her: "You are just a greedy person. As long as your stomach is satisfied, all the troubles will disappear without a trace in an instant!"

After she finished speaking, everyone in the room burst into laughter.

Ning Ziqing took a piece of meat and took two bites, and said with a playful smile: "No big deal is worth being hungry. Besides, when people go to higher places, water flows to lower places. I decided to teach embroidery techniques at the beginning When I was young, I had long expected that such a day would come, so I would not trouble myself over the Embroidery Hefang matter."

Seeing her being so open-minded, Lin Wanqiao and the others were relieved.

Afterwards, several people changed the topic and chatted and laughed while eating.

Outside the house, Ning Zijun was carrying a food box. When he heard the laughter coming from inside, the corners of his mouth rose unconsciously.

When Ning Ziqing sent Lin Wanqiao and the others out, they saw Ning Zijun standing at the door. Several business ladies greeted him shyly: "I have met the prince."

Ning Zijun returned the gift, keeping his eyes on Lin Wanqiao behind them.

"Ms. Lin, I forgot to return the box of pastries you sent me last time."

As he spoke, he reached out and handed over the food box. Lin Wanqiao stepped forward and took it from his hand. She accidentally touched Ning Zijun's finger. Her heart trembled slightly and her face began to heat up. She quickly lowered her eyes and stepped back.

Ning Zijun noticed her reaction, pursed his lips with a smile, and said warmly: "Thank you, Miss Lin, for allowing me to take advantage of my little sister so that I can taste your excellent cooking skills."

Lin Wanqiao's expression was a little unnatural: "Your Majesty, you're welcome. I made more pastries last time and divided them into two portions for Miss Third to eat slowly. I didn't expect this portion to go to Your Majesty."

A deliberate smile appeared on her face, trying to hide her shyness.

Ning Zijun paused for a moment, slightly disappointed.

It turned out that this was not specially prepared for him.

While the two were talking, Ning Ziqing and several merchant ladies were already walking ahead.

Lin Wanqiao clenched the food box in her hand, blushing and heartbeating, and hurriedly followed her, fearing that Ning Zijun would notice something strange about her.

Several people walked out of Xiyuan one after another and met Yinxiang leading the concierge who was carrying things.

"What are these?"

Ning Ziqing looked at the sack in the concierge's hand and asked doubtfully.

Yinxiang ran over and said, "Miss, someone just sent it to the Marquis Mansion. I haven't opened it yet. The man said it was a gift from an old friend. Please accept it."

Ning Ziqing was confused: "Isn't it sent by someone from the caravan?"

Yinxiang shook his head, and Ning Ziqing became curious and immediately ordered the concierge to open a sack in front of him.

Several people gathered around and took a look. It turned out to be walnuts and red dates.

Ning Ziqing was stunned, a little confused.

Suddenly, she seemed to remember something.

Could it be that Jiang Quhan sent this?But why didn't he come to her in person when he came to Kyoto?Do you have to give yourself walnuts and red dates first?

Ning Ziqing was puzzled and asked the concierge: "Did the person who sent the things leave any words?"

The concierge thought for a moment and shook his head no.

Ning Ziqing had no choice but to order them to move things to the garden.

At this time, Yaoyao hurried over with the shopkeeper of Xiuhefang to see Ning Ziqing.

"Boss, please go to the store and have a look. Many businessmen from foreign countries have come and want half a year's supply of our goods. But now we don't have many embroiderers left. What should we do?"

The shopkeeper was so anxious that she felt sad because Ning Ziqing had stood up and offended the dignitaries in Kyoto and lost their business, thus ruining all her hard work.

Unexpectedly, early this morning, a group of businessmen from various countries suddenly poured into the store and surrounded her.

Although she could only understand a few words in her eagerness, she could generally guess the general meaning.

Then I learned from a businessman who could speak Nanyao Mandarin: They wanted to book orders for Xiuhefang for the next six months.

The shopkeeper couldn't believe it, but those businessmen even generously paid half of the deposit!

Even Ning Ziqing and the others found it incredible after hearing it!

Before Ning Ziqing came to her senses, the shopkeeper anxiously picked her up and left.

"Boss, come with me to the store to deal with it quickly!"

Ning Ziqing could only shout to Ning Zijun: "Brother, please help me see Sister Lin and the others off."

Ning Zijun nodded in agreement, and after watching Ning Ziqing leave, he was about to send Lin Wanqiao and others out of the house when a servant ran back to report: "Your Majesty, the Marquis and his wife invite you to meet the guests in the front hall."

Ning Zijun frowned: "What's the matter?"

The servant replied: "The Song family and the Li family have brought matchmakers to discuss the marriage arrangements for the prince."

Hearing this, Lin Wanqiao's heart tightened and her body trembled involuntarily. The maid Zhixia on the side supported her.

"Miss, what's wrong with you?"

Lin Wanqiao hurriedly nodded and said, "Since the prince has something to do, there is no need to see him off. We can just leave the house on our own."

After saying that, he walked quickly ahead. Seeing this, the other ladies also hurriedly saluted Ning Zijun and said goodbye.

Ning Zijun looked at Lin Wanqiao's retreating back, stood there in silence for a moment, and finally walked towards the front hall with a stern expression.

The residence of the Second Prince.

Huo Yunhong sat at the table with a gloomy expression as he listened to Lu Heng's report on the important matters that had been dealt with recently.

"Yuan Que, this good-for-nothing, caused His Highness to be almost convicted by Father! Your Highness must settle this account with him!"

He raised the jade cup, took a swig, and smashed the cup to the ground angrily, causing pieces to fly everywhere.

"Your Highness, calm down!" Lu Heng stepped forward and reminded, "I'm afraid this matter has something to do with the Fourth Prince!"

Huo Yunhong's eyes darkened and he sneered: "Except for my secretive fourth brother who can set up such a scheme. Who else has such means, killing two birds with one stone, to frame me and the prince like this!"

Thinking of this, Huo Yunhong calmed down.

"I suspect that the account book in Xu Zheng's hands was also deliberately revealed to the prince by the fourth son. He wanted to use the prince to defeat me, so I was forced to take action to protect myself."

Lu Heng's eyes darkened: "Your Highness, I'm afraid this matter is not that simple. Why are there secret guards guarding the embankment all the time? Could it be that someone foretells that we will send people to blow up the embankment?"

Huo Yunhong's pupils trembled, and he said angrily: "Could there be a spy betraying us?"

Lu Heng shook his head and denied: "Your Highness, don't worry, the Fourth Highness can't reach in yet. I feel that this matter has a lot to do with Zhan Yuantang and Miss Ning San!"

Huo Yunhong was stunned: "Sir, what do you mean by this?"

"I find it very strange what happened in Lianzhou and Qingzhou. Why did Zhan Yuantang seize this opportunity to order the Jianghu sect to come out to rescue the victims, quell the unrest, and prepare so much food and grass in advance? Could it be that they had known this for a long time? Will there be floods in both places?"

"One more thing, Your Highness knows that Bai Yifeng, the leader of Zhanyuan Hall, always accepts assassination missions with a 'wait and wait' mentality and will not get involved in temple affairs. This time, however, he uncharacteristically interfered in court affairs, in the name of repaying the Fourth Highness. Because, I’m afraid there are some problems with this. I guess this is Miss Third’s idea!”

As soon as these words came out, Huo Yunhong was shocked.

"You're saying that Ning Ziqing had anticipated these things, so that's why...!"

He suddenly realized that this seemed unlikely, and turned around to see Lu Heng's convinced expression.

Huo Yunhong trembled all over, feeling extremely uneasy.

"Why does she have such abilities?"

After a while, he feebly asked this sentence.

Lu Heng solemnly advised: "Your Highness, there are too many doubts about this woman. You must not keep her here. Have you forgotten what she did to you when we were in Gucheng? The master she called that night was Bai Yifeng of Zhanyuantang and Yuan Que are now being hunted by masters of Zhanyuantang hiding in Kyoto. It is said that they were ordered by the young hall master. This young hall master is Miss Ning San. His Highness must never destroy his future for her again. !”

Huo Yunhong rubbed his forehead in frustration, with no warmth in his eyes.

After a long while, he gritted his teeth and asked, "What do you think when you go to see the people from Qian Ye Country?"

"I haven't met their prince yet. The old servant who served me said that the prince is not acclimated to the climate. He is ill and is still recuperating. He has not given us a clear answer yet."

Huo Yunhong clenched his fists and smashed them on the table in disappointment: "Seeing that my father's birthday banquet is coming soon, how else can we plan! Duke Qi is not willing to help at all, so what do you want me to do?"

Lu Heng smiled and replied meaningfully: "Your Highness, please be patient. On the day of His Majesty's birthday banquet, all you need to do is watch the show quietly. Miss Ning Si and the others have already made arrangements."

Huo Yunhong understood and curled his lips regretfully: "What a pity. Your Highness has not even had a chance to taste Ning Ziqing's taste, so he has to hand it over to someone else! It's really a bit unwilling!"

"Then Ning Zilan is just a fake after all!"
