The charming empress is too good at fishing, and the ruthless emperor has fallen

In the middle of the day, the guests came one after another.

Ying Tian's subordinates at all levels in the army, the new commander of Hami Guard after Deng Tong, various dignitaries and wealthy businessmen in the city who had close contacts with the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, and the commanders of the capital sent by the imperial court to serve as officials of the Ministry of War, all They showed up bustling with their families.

Even Anal came.

After Deng Tong's accident, Ana'er and the tribe quickly investigated and found out the truth about the illness of the old commander, Ana'er's father, which was all caused by Deng Tong.

Now Deng Tong has been executed by Yingtian, and Anal has become a widow.

But obviously, although her personality has become much quieter, her complexion also looks much better than before. It can be seen that the death of a husband who made her unhappy has brought her more happy days.

Until the end, King Qing and Princess Qing arrived belatedly.

Jing Shu also met Prince Qing for the first time.

He is of medium height, wearing a golden crown and a gold-woven robe. His slightly fat and swollen face is full of weakness after being drained by wine and sex. When he sees Jingshu, his eyes are full of turbidity. Her eyes immediately widened in surprise, almost wanting to stick to Jing Shu's body and refuse to move away.

On the side, Qi Mingzhu wanted to dig out his eyes as soon as she saw his leering look.

Princess Qing obviously already knew the virtues of her prince.

She just pretended not to see him, stepped forward to hold Jingshu's hands affectionately, and started talking.

"Princess, it's getting late, let's take a seat first." Jing Shu said, leading her to the garden where the charity flower viewing banquet was being held today.

The garden was already filled with tables and chairs.

The servants in the mansion have already started serving refreshments.

Jing Shu arranged the seats of Princess Qing and Prince Qing in the middle of the first row. At first glance, they had the most extraordinary status.

Princess Qing is obviously very satisfied with this arrangement.

Afterwards, the flower viewing party officially began.

Jingshu handed over the auction matters of the flower appreciation banquet to Mrs. Tang Er, and she only reminded how to do it.

Mrs. Tang Er's family is engaged in business and her temperament is relatively outgoing. When it comes to such an occasion, looking at the garden full of officials and wives, they are not afraid of the stage at all and can handle it with ease. After all, the biggest official in the entire Saibei is in her house.

Mrs. Zhu San's face didn't look good when she saw her showing off.

The items brought by the guests were auctioned off one by one.

Whoever has a higher status will have a higher price at auction.

Among them, the blue and white porcelain vase that Ying Tian brought out was naturally the most valuable. This one alone raised a donation of one hundred thousand taels of silver. The bidder was Chen Lingshen, the richest man in the city, known as "Chen Bancheng", which means he was half rich. city.

On the side, Princess Qing watched with a particularly satisfied smile on her face as she raised nearly one million taels of silver in just one hour.

After all, the money will eventually fall into her pocket.

Jing Shu took a piece of jade Ruyi, which was finally bought by Lu Zan for 50,000 taels of silver.

Qi Jin and Qi Mingzhu couldn't beat him.

Qi Mingzhu was so angry that she glared at him, while Lu Zan just waved his fan leisurely, looking quite relaxed.

The finale was an antique vase brought by Princess Qing.

When Jing Shu saw Princess Qing's things appearing, she signaled to Mrs. Tang Er.

Mrs. Tang Er immediately retreated.

Then Jing Shu stood up and introduced the antique vase personally: "This vase was handed down from the previous dynasty. There is nothing to introduce. The rare person who brought this vase is our Princess Qing.

"To be offensive, I don't know what the princess's maiden name is? Princess, can you tell us where you are from? Who is your father?"

Princess Qing didn't seem to expect that Jing Shu would mention this.

A look of embarrassment flashed across her face.

Moreover, doesn’t Jing Shu know her origin?

Why are you asking these questions here again today?

But taking one look at the white money, she could only hold back the displeasure in her heart, squeezed out a pleasant smile on her face, and said warmly: "I was born in the capital, and my father is the minister of the Ministry of Industry of the current imperial court."

"Minister of the Ministry of Industry? Isn't that Master Liu Zhenyi?" Jingshu said in surprise, "But the problem is, I have been in Beijing for many years and I have never heard that Master Liu has a daughter like you?"

"Miss Ying has been in Beijing for many years, so she may not know this. After all, the capital is so big. How can you, a little girl, know so much?" Princess Qing's tone was still very gentle, and it seemed that she was not disturbed by Jing Shu's words. I felt unhappy.

"The princess is wrong."

Jing Shu looked at her with a smile in her eyes, "Although the capital city is big, it still has its own circle of noble ladies and ladies. Not to mention other circles, if any troublesome thing happens in any family, almost everyone will be in trouble. Everyone knows it.

"I was separated from my father when I was young, but I was lucky enough to be adopted by a minister of the court, who happened to be from this circle, and my adoptive mother was from the circle of ladies. Therefore, if Mr. Liu really has a daughter like you, I will How is it possible that I have never seen it, let alone heard of it?”

When Princess Qing heard this, she frowned slightly and looked at Jing Shu with a bit of disbelief in her eyes, as if she didn't understand why Jing Shu did this.

She said: "Isn't the purpose of today's charity flower viewing banquet to raise money for those poor orphans from the Salesian Bureau? Why are you asking about my family affairs?"

"That's why I wanted to ask."

Jing Shu looked innocent, "After all, everyone's money is not brought by the strong wind, it is all earned through hard work. If you want to hand over such a large sum of money to a person with unknown origin... what do I think?" , you feel uneasy?

"Everyone, what do you think?"

She said this, and naturally some people in the crowd immediately agreed.

Although Princess Qing's status is said to be nobler than hers, everyone knows that the real person in power in Saibei is her father Yingtian.

"Yes, Miss Ying's words have also aroused our curiosity. Let me ask everyone here, who doesn't want to know the origin of Princess Qing?"

"Yes, I heard before that she is the daughter of an aunt raised by Liu Zhenyi, Minister of Industry, but who knows if this is true or not?"

"It's just about her birth. Why can't she explain it clearly? Unless she is a person of unknown origin, as Miss Ying said. If so, I don't want my family's money to be taken care of by such a person!"

Everyone questioned.

Princess Qing's face finally turned ugly.

Suddenly an idea flashed in her mind, and she realized something. She looked at Jing Shu in disbelief: "Did you deliberately set up a trap today? To trick me?"

Jing Shu still looked innocent: "What did the princess say? I just want my money to be paid properly. If the princess is unwilling to explain clearly, then I am really sorry. Today, I can only return these donations to everyone." ”

When Princess Qing heard this, her brows jumped fiercely.

She took a look at the white coins placed aside, and finally gritted her teeth and said: "My father is indeed Liu Zhenyi, the Minister of Industry! I was born from an outside house raised by him. My father does not want my mother and I to be made public. You Of course you don’t know about those circles of ladies and ladies!”

Hearing this, Jing Shu smiled slightly: "The princess is still so smart and so good at lying.

"Just like Princess, when you lied and deceived me when I was young."

As soon as these words came out, Princess Qing was stunned.

"W-what do you mean? You..."

"Yes, I know who you really are, Sister Chan'er. You caused me so much pain back then." Jing Shu said with a sad expression in front of everyone and Ying Tian.
