The queen died unjustly and was reborn as the empress.

Just like last time, he heard that Bai Lan had a big royal deal in his hands. He specifically asked her to get it, and then asked her to ask Bai Chengyang to let Bai Lan accept him and promised to give her half of the share.

Why wouldn't she enjoy a good thing like this, where she just opens her mouth and collects money? It should be said that the more, the merrier, and anyone who comes will be welcome.

Thinking of this, Bai Mei's smile was as bright as a flower, but she didn't notice that Zheng Shaoke's face was as white as a dead person.

"Meier, my uncle is here to see you this time because of the royal business that Bai Lan handled last time."

"Oh, that's the business uncle was talking about." Bai Mei's eyes lit up. She heard that the delivery date for this business was tomorrow, so her uncle came to her one day in advance to give her money in advance. She quickly said politely: "What's the hurry, uncle?" , the delivery is tomorrow, just come back and see Meier tomorrow, why bother making a special trip today."

Zheng Shaoke sighed deeply. This niece had not been out since she was pregnant. She didn't know about the fact that the warehouse was burned down.

"Meier, I can't order tomorrow's goods."

Bai Mei was startled, "What? What do you mean you can't hand it over?" Bai Lan's royal business is not simple. It is specially provided for the ladies and palace servants in the palace to wear. Not only is the fabric high-quality, it is also extremely rare, especially the Shu brocade. There were so many embroiderers outside that weaved just a few pieces per month and brought them to the palace. Not to mention how precious they were, at least they were considered to be the best among the Five Treasures. Without the Five Treasures, Shu Brocade would be something that the ladies in the harem would scramble for first.

If he fails to deliver the goods in time, Zheng Shaoke will not only offend Bai Lan, but also the emperor in the palace and the ladies in the harem. This is no joke.

Zheng Shaoke was hesitant. He had obviously thought of what to say on the way here, but when facing Bai Mei, he started to panic again. He didn't know how to say it. After struggling for a long time, he gritted his teeth and just said it.

"The fire in the suburbs burned down my warehouse yesterday, and all the fabrics were burned."

"What, it's all burned out?" Bai Mei's eyes widened in disbelief. If everything is burned, what does that mean? It means that the money is gone, and there will be a royal lawsuit.

The look she looked at Zheng Shaoke was no longer as friendly as before, and she asked calmly: "Does your uncle come here this time to intercede for you?"

After hearing Zheng Shaoke say that the warehouse was on fire, she felt a lot colder. She thought they were here to deliver money, but it turned out that they were involved in a lawsuit through the back door, and this lawsuit was not simple. One involved the royal family, and the other was Get involved with that heartless Bai Lan.

Although His Highness is the prince, it is very convenient to help him, but once the matter involves Bai Lan, the disaster star, it is uncertain, not to mention that he is planning a major event now, which is closely related to her life. Don't let this little thing ruin it.

"It's not that I want to help. I know that this matter involving Bai Lan is not simple, and I don't want His Highness to wade through this muddy water for me. I just want you to give me some money so that I can pay the liquidated damages and be exempted. Just jail time."

Bai Mei breathed a sigh of relief. Even if this uncle knew himself and was just asking for money, it was okay. I just don’t know...

"I wonder how much uncle wants?"

In fact, when she asked, she was unsure. Most of the money Zheng Shaoke gave her went to Yun Qin, and she didn't have much left. The amount of this business was huge, and she was a little scared, fearing that the Yuewang Mansion wouldn't be able to bring out so much money.

Zheng Shaoke stretched out his hand and made a sign of six.

Bai Mei guessed, "Six hundred taels?" When she thought it was wrong, there were so many palace clothes, how could there be only six hundred taels? She shook her head and guessed again, "Six thousand taels?"

Zheng Shaoke frowned and shook his head. If only it was six thousand taels, he could handle it in one or two houses, so why bother asking to come here.

"Sixty thousand taels?" Bai Mei guessed again. Guessing that she had lost her patience, she already had a headache for six thousand taels. Even if she sold the money to the Moon Palace, she wouldn't be able to get that much.

Seeing Zheng Shaoke still shaking his head with a grimace, she became anxious. "Uncle, tell me, how much do you want?"

"Alas! Thirty thousand taels of gold!"

"What?" Bai Mei shouted in a high voice. "What does it cost thirty thousand taels of gold? Didn't it only have cloth?"

Thirty thousand taels of gold is enough to buy the five treasures, let alone those Shu brocades.

Zheng Shaoke sighed again, "This is all my fault. The Yao family also wanted this business at that time, and I was afraid that he would snatch it away, so I hurriedly signed a document with Princess Ye, saying that if the goods could not be delivered, I would have to pay back five times. Princess Ye gave it to me. So, if I can’t deliver the goods tomorrow, I have to pay five times the payment, which is thirty thousand taels of gold.”

"boom"

A bowl of tea cups was thrown to the ground. "You're confused, uncle, why did you sign this document?"

When grabbing an order, multiple liquidated damages were charged, and if something happened to the goods before delivery, it was unclear whether someone had set it up. Bai Lan, what do you want, the Zheng family's property? Or do you want the Zheng family’s life?

In Yeyou Mansion, Bai Lan sat on someone's lap and swung her legs, "I want the Zheng family to be ruined. I want Bai Mei to lose her money and cry for father and mother."

Yun Ye pinched her chin lovingly, "Have you hidden your things for tomorrow?"

"Hehe! Nothing can be hidden from your eyes." She grabbed a piece of fruit and stuffed it into her mouth, "Before lighting the fire, I asked Youya Youjing to lead people to steal all the valuable things, and the remaining ordinary cloths were considered There are so many in my store, just add fuel to the fire and make it lively."

They were talking happily on one side, but on the other side there was a lot of commotion in Prince Yue's Mansion.

Zheng Shaoke knelt at Bai Mei's feet and cried loudly, "Mei'er, you have to save your uncle. That girl Bai Lan said she wanted to take me to jail. "

Bai Mei was upset by his crying, and frowned, "Thirty thousand taels of gold, do you think you can get it if you have it?"

"What should I do? Uncle, I will go to jail tomorrow. Meier, you can't just die without saving me. Think about the money that uncle gave you before, one thousand or two thousand taels, and then think about what uncle has done for you. Well, if it weren't for uncle, you wouldn't be where you are today. Mei'er, uncle, I'm doing this all for your own good."

Those things... Zheng Shaoke's words brought Bai Mei's thoughts back. Yes, it was Zheng Shaoke who hired someone to spread rumors about Fengxing for her and successfully attracted the attention of the princes. He was also the one who helped her time and time again when she was short of money. He sent money to her, and it was he who asked Chen Mingtan to help her. Her uncle had done so many things for her, so many shameful things.

She looked at Zheng Shaoke, who was kneeling on the ground, with gloomy eyes.
