Chapter 246 Confiscating the house
He was so engrossed in reading the letter that he didn't even notice Tianqing leaving. After reading it, his face became even gloomier.
"Crack~"
He slammed the letter on the table, his eyes dark as if a storm was about to come.
They have been trembling with fear in the palace for so many years, and even handed over their military power. Can't they win the trust of their superiors?
Did he really think that the Prince of Zhennan's Mansion was a soft persimmon that he could bully at will?
No, we can't just sit there and wait for death. Since Pei Yu has already heard the news, it means that this incident will happen soon.
He must make arrangements in advance and arrange the people from the Xie family and its branches as soon as possible, otherwise, he will really become fish on the chopping board of others.
He folded the letter on the table and put it in his arms, then strode out of the study. This matter was too horrifying, and he needed to discuss it with his father.
Three days later, Shen Jiaojiao came back from shopping with something in her hands. When she was about to reach the Zhennan Palace, she found that the wall of the palace was guarded by soldiers.
She quickly lowered her head, not daring to look any further. She clenched her fingers and walked towards the gate. Before she got close, she saw a circle of people gathered outside from afar.
After finally squeezing in, he found that the entrance was also heavily guarded. His face turned pale.
How is this going?
"Ma'am, what happened here?"
"Oh my! This Zhennan Palace actually embezzled the money used for disaster relief before the New Year. It was a full two hundred thousand taels!"
"God damn it, how can a real royal palace do this?"
"Years ago, so many people were displaced because of them!"
"Yes, now the emperor has ordered the confiscation of their property, they deserve it!"
Shen Jiaojiao's heart sank immediately. The house was ransacked. Where should she go?
While Shen Jiaojiao was daydreaming, soldiers inside the gate came out with the family members of Prince Zhennan's Mansion. Their gorgeous clothes and jewelry had been taken off. It was winter, and they were only wearing ordinary cotton jackets. They were escorted out by soldiers.
When Shen Jiaojiao saw someone familiar, she hurriedly stepped back to avoid being implicated.
As soon as the people from the Xie family came out, someone threw rotten leaves and rotten eggs at them. Prince Zhennan moved sideways to block his wife, his eyes deep, as he remembered what Yun Ci had said to him that day.
The Prince of Zhennan's Mansion has made many contributions, but they have not been on the battlefield for ten years. These ten years are enough for the people to forget them.
And now, all they need to do is pin a small, insignificant, or unfounded charge on the Zhennan Palace, and they will be despised by the world.
No one will remember the good things about the Zhennan Palace, they will only remember the mistakes they made.
He felt very upset, but he had finally come to this point.
The leading official had a very ugly look on his face. He did not care when he saw the people throwing things at the family members of Prince Zhennan's Mansion. Because, he turned Prince Zhennan's Mansion upside down and put all the things together, but only found 100,000 taels of silver. This was not in line with the plan at all.
Not to mention the extravagant wedding dress of Princess Zhennan at the wedding of Prince Zhennan, how could the Prince Zhennan's Mansion only have a mere 100,000 taels? Could it be that they got wind of the matter in advance and gave the silver away?
But he couldn't understand why he didn't send his family away in advance if he had heard the news in advance?
"take away."
At his command, the officers and soldiers escorted the people to the prison. The people around immediately made way for them, throwing the vegetable leaves and rotten eggs in their hands.
Shen Jiaojiao felt like she was falling into an icy cave. Her house was really ransacked. What should she do?
Where should this huge capital city go?
In a trance, he looked up and met Xie Yunche's gaze, then quickly backed away. When he walked out, he could only see his figure walking away.
Xie Yunche raised the corners of his lips slightly, and a hint of mockery flashed in his eyes.
……
Time passed quickly, and on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, Shen Li took her people back to work, cleaned the store, and reopened it.
On the 21st day of the first lunar month, Shen Qian'an took his luggage and went to Lushan Academy alone to report. Shen Li gave him the keys to both courtyards and told him that if anyone wanted to rent a house, he should rent out the other courtyard.
Business was very good during the half-day break, and I encountered many people who made things difficult for me along the way, but I was able to resolve them one by one.
In a blink of an eye, time entered the end of spring and the beginning of summer. Shen Li planted 10 acres of lemons and many fruit trees on the two farms.
In addition, she bought two farms nearby, also for growing lemons and fruit trees. Of course, there are also many fruit trees planted in Daohua Village.
……
The girl in front of the window was wearing a red dress, holding a cup of tea in her hand, with her black hair draped over her shoulders, tied up with only a white jade hairpin. She was not wearing any makeup but was particularly eye-catching.
A few months passed, and Shen Li became more and more beautiful, but she didn't grow taller.
"Boss," Bai Yao was taking a break today. She was holding a tray with a few drinks in it, all of which she had tried to make herself.
"I made this myself, you try it."
"it is good."
Although the girl's voice was cold, the expression on her face was gentle.
However, Bai Yao knew that this was just her boss' usual expression. At first glance, it might seem that he was easy to bully, but in fact, it was not the case.
Shen Li picked up a cup of fruit tea and drank it. There were thin slices of lemon and orange floating in it.
"tasty."
Bai Yao smiled and said, "I have been learning from Li Niang for a long time!"
"With this drink, our store's business will definitely be taken to the next level."
"But," she paused, looking a little worried, "this recipe doesn't require any skills, and others can figure it out after just a little thought, which might affect our business."
Shen Li picked up another cup and took a sip before saying, "It's okay. We have the raw materials in our hands. They can't find so many lemons in a short time."
"Too."
Shen Li raised the corners of her lips, "We can still sell some lemons to other companies, but we can't do exclusive business, right?"
Bai Yao has seen a lot more during this period of time, and after a little thought, she understood what her boss meant.
"By the way, Miss Su has been asking the boss when he will return to the store these days. It seems that she has something to ask you."
"Okay, I understand. I'll go back to the store tomorrow."
Bai Yao narrowed her eyes and said, "I knew you would go tomorrow."
Shen Li tried all the fruit drinks she made one by one, and then told her that there were some details that needed attention.
Not long after, Shen Li went to the front yard. A few years ago, the Shen family father and son seized the last opportunity, sold a batch of charcoal, and earned two thousand taels of silver.
The land allocated to the family was not left idle. Following Shen Li's method, they planted early rice earlier than other people in the village.
Later, when I had nothing to do, I wanted to go out and earn some money, but this idea was directly shattered by Shen Li.
