After rebirth, she killed her best friend and took over the scumbag's kingdom

Chapter 67: Sending Jade Cucumbers to the Emperor and Empress to Celebrate the Seventh Night

Feng Qiongzhu lay on the recliner, lost in thought. After a while, she slowly asked, "Is there anything special happening in the palace?"

An Qing replied: "Nothing special happened in the palace. The emperor gave the task of disaster relief to Prime Minister Liu. If he didn't handle it properly, he threatened to chop off Prime Minister Liu's head. Since the emperor learned that Prime Minister Liu betrayed him and secretly searched for the treasure map, his attitude towards Prime Minister Liu became cold. Now Prime Minister Liu can only go all out to deal with the disaster relief.

"The emperor was concentrating on treating his physical condition, and the torture on Queen Liu became increasingly severe. Queen Liu couldn't stand it, so she had to secretly look for beauties among the people to present to the emperor, but these beauties sent to the palace often couldn't escape bad luck." An Qing continued.

"Also, the matter of bribing the eunuch you ordered has been arranged. The eunuch has taken the opportunity to give the item you ordered to be made to Queen Liu, and she has used it. It is said that... she likes it very much, but her demand for the eunuch is increasing. After all, they are all useless, and I am afraid it is difficult to satisfy her desire."

Feng Qiongzhu was silent for a long time while listening to An Qing's report. An Qing thought she was asleep and was about to leave quietly when he heard her slowly say, "Next month is the Chinese Valentine's Day, right?"

Yun Kaizhou heard Feng Qiongzhu's words and mistakenly thought that she wanted to spend the Chinese Valentine's Day with him, so he responded gently: "Don't worry, I will spend the Chinese Valentine's Day with you and prepare many gifts for you. You can also just tell me what you want..."

Feng Qiongzhu realized that they had misunderstood her meaning, and explained: "Will the palace host any activities on the Qixi Festival? I think the emperor and empress have a deep affection and love for each other, which is widely known among the people. As ordinary people, shouldn't we send blessings and gifts to the emperor and empress?"

Yun Kaizhou asked curiously: "What do you want to do?"

An Qing was a little confused: "What does this mean?

Feng Qiongzhu smiled and explained, "In order to express gratitude to the emperor for his kindness, the people of the Jiangnan water town specially prepared folk gifts to celebrate the emperor and empress's Qixi Festival."

"Anqing, you should prepare this gift. Find a master craftsman who is an excellent jade carver, and use the best quality material, preferably emerald green, to carve a pair of cucumbers. They should be larger than the cucumbers grown by ordinary people, and the thorns and patterns on the cucumbers should be lifelike, especially... there should be more thorns... The people have a good harvest, and in order to express their gratitude to the emperor, they specially send crops to the emperor and the empress. A pair of cucumbers has such a good meaning..." After saying that, Feng Qiongzhu closed her eyes and continued to sleep on the recliner.

Yun Kaizhou: “…”

An Qing: "..."

Yun Kaizhou: Sister, you are so mean!

An Qing asked hesitantly, "Um, do you really want to give me this gift? Wouldn't that be inappropriate?"

"Since she wants to play, you can play with her. I'll arrange for someone to send it up after the carving is done," Yun Kaizhou was also surprised by her. He didn't expect that she was so playful.

An Qing frowned and asked worriedly, "Have you ever thought about what would happen if the emperor went crazy?"

Feng Qiongzhu opened her eyes and glanced at him, then said nonchalantly, "Why are you going crazy? There's nothing wrong with the gift. How expensive is jade? I can't bear to part with it..."

Yun Kaizhou raised the corners of his lips slightly, finding it a little funny.

At this time, Honeysuckle added more tea and brought over a basket of exquisite pastries.

Seeing this, An Qing said, "My Lord, I'll go down and make arrangements. I'll bring the shopkeeper and the banknotes up later."

Yun Kaizhou hummed and motioned for him to go down.

His eyes were on Feng Qiongzhu, who was sleeping like a cat.

Looking at her clothes that he had torn, Yun Kaizhou said to Rendong, "Rendong, go and help her change her clothes..."

Honeysuckle looked at him hesitantly: "Just like that?"

Seeing the look on the prince's face, Ren Dong had no choice but to change Feng Qiongzhu's clothes right in front of him. Looking at the bruises on her body, she felt distressed. This prince was really a bad person. The girl was still young...

Yun Kaizhou glanced at Ren Dong, threw a bottle of medicine at her, and said, "Since you are heartbroken, then help her apply the medicine!"

Honeysuckle: “…”

Honeysuckle took the medicine bottle and asked, "Will the food be brought up from the bottom of the mountain? Will you and the girl eat here?"

"Well, for two people, bring them both up."

Feng Qiongzhu slept until it was almost dark, and only when her stomach growled did she slowly open her eyes.

Ren Dong was sitting by the door. When she saw her wake up, she immediately said, "An Qing and a middle-aged man are waiting for you outside. Girl, do you want to eat first and then go meet them, or eat after meeting them?"

"I'll go meet them first."

When she walked out of the wooden house, she saw An Qing and a slightly plump, honest-looking middle-aged man talking beside the flower garden.

"Dark Blue"

An Qing turned around and saw that Feng Qiongzhu had woken up, so he immediately pulled the middle-aged man next to him over.

Xiang introduced: "This is the shopkeeper I found for you. He was originally in charge of purchasing in the Dark Guard Camp, and his hometown is also in Cangzhou. If you are satisfied, this shopkeeper will be yours."

"What's your name? Is there anyone at home?" Feng Qiongzhu asked.

"My name is Zhang Haiqing. I have no relatives at home. My whole family was killed by robbers in the middle of the night. All the property in my home was burned to ashes. I was lucky enough to escape the disaster because I was doing business outside. Now I am the only one left."

Feng Qiongzhu nodded and instructed: "Zhang Haiqing, go to Cangzhou to help me open a wine shop. First, buy all kinds of wines available on the market. Let Anqing help you with the formalities. In addition, a man named Qianshan will come to you. He is also from the Dark Guard Camp. You should know him, right?"

Zhang Haiqing nodded: "Let's get to know each other. I will follow Qianshan's arrangements."

"I'll give you two thousand taels first as start-up capital for buying a shop and wine. Is two thousand taels enough?" Feng Qiongzhu asked. She didn't know the prices in Cangzhou.

"That's enough. Don't worry, young lady. I will run the wine shop with all my heart."

Feng Qiongzhu gestured to An Qing, who immediately opened the box, took out a stack of silver bills and handed them to Feng Qiongzhu.

Ten of them were large-denomination silver notes of one thousand taels, and the rest were all silver notes of one hundred taels.

Feng Qiongzhu took the box, took out a silver note of one thousand taels and ten silver notes of one hundred taels and handed them to Zhang Haiqing.

Zhang Haiqing took the banknote and a happy smile appeared on his face.

He said with emotion: "Since my family was killed by bandits, I joined the Dark Guards for revenge. Now that I have taken revenge, I have been collecting information for the Dark Guards in this remote place. I didn't expect that I would have the opportunity to return home today and start a new life. I will do my best to run this wine shop and live up to the girl's expectations."

He knew what a precious opportunity it was to be able to step out into the sunlight and live a normal life, and he was determined to run the wine shop well for the girl.

The supervisor has made it clear that from now on, he belongs to the girl and is in charge of this wine shop.
