After I traveled through the book, I was spoiled by five little villains

When people are in desperate situations, they can do anything.

She had to give it one more chance.

Sure enough, several people immediately came forward with their faces covered and changed some of the information they had recorded at Chunfen.

Chunfen circled their names.

Tea and pastries were served. Qin Yaoguang asked them to eat first while she looked at the personnel file again.

The Spring Equinox is recorded in great detail, from name, hometown, age, etc. to each person's brief experience and skills.

There were three prostitutes who had not yet been redeemed. Qin Yaoguang called the manager of the outer courtyard in and arranged for him to go to the brothel to pay the redemption money, take the indentures to the Jingzhao Prefecture for filing, and then retrieve them.

For the sake of Chunning's reputation, no woman who participated in the Plum Garden Incident can be left alone.

It was obviously the man who caused the trouble, but the consequences were borne by the woman.

This world is just so fucked up.

She couldn't let Chunning's reputation be even slightly associated with such a scandalous incident.

Asking each family to redeem people is also to ask each government to keep a lid on their mouths.

The three prostitutes all looked delighted when they heard this.

I didn't expect that this time, it would turn out to be a blessing in disguise!

If one could be redeemed, who would willingly live a life of humiliation where their lips were tasted by thousands of people?

After counting the number of people one by one, there were exactly twenty-six of them.

Qin Yaoguang looked at the women and said, "Today, you will be settled in my villa in the suburbs of Beijing. Someone will come to arrange your place tomorrow."

There were too many people with mixed backgrounds, and she couldn't bring them all back to the Princess's Mansion at once.

Among them, the largest number were Lu Yi's concubines.

"However, I will say this in advance. If there are those who want to climb up the social ladder or use their beauty to serve others, they should give up their ideas as soon as possible. If they do not obey me, I will kill them all."

With so many people, she couldn't guarantee that all of them had good character. There might be some who were used to being served, so she would give them a warning first.

All the girls shuddered, and even if they had any other thoughts, they were immediately extinguished.

During the large-scale interview, Chun Ning collected the indentures of women including Lanxiang and put them in a box, and now handed them over to Qin Yaoguang.

Qin Yaoguang asked Nanny Deng to check each person one by one. Except for the three prostitutes, the indentures of the two skinny horses were also included.

Lu Yi is just a lustful person and has no respect for women.

Even though he had many concubines, he never took any decent concubines. All of them were bought, redeemed from brothels, or given to him by people who flattered him. They were all women with bond contracts.

After Nanny Deng finished the inventory, Qin Yaoguang asked Chun Ning to borrow seven or eight carriages to send them all to the villa outside the capital. She also sent someone to notify Zeng Xiangjin to send two stewards and a team of guards from the Princess's mansion to guard them.

While they were busy, Hanlu came with news that someone else had come to pay the ransom, and a tall and mighty general had also arrived.

Hanlu had never seen Hu Yanjin, but Qin Yaoguang knew it was him as soon as she heard him.

"It's still the same as before. Give the ransom to Madam Deng. Hanlu, take someone out to check the names before releasing them." Qin Yaoguang instructed, "When you come back, cross out the names on the paper."

After finishing the matter, Qin Yaoguang turned to Chun Ning and said, "Royal sister, I would like to borrow your flower hall for entertaining guests."

"Please use it, my sister." Chun Ning had no reason to be unhappy.

The flower hall in Princess Chunning's mansion was exquisitely built. When Huyan Jin stood there, he felt like an iron tower, with a feeling of towering above the earth and a strong presence.

The first thing Qin Yaoguang did when he entered the flower hall was to ask someone to find him a seat.

She knew in her heart that Huyan Jin was Yan Changqing's most visible card in Beijing, so she found the most legitimate reason.

There was no reason for Hu Yanjin to appear in Princess Chunning's mansion for no reason, let alone to do the task she assigned to him.

She was originally wondering what kind of reason would be the most convincing, but she didn't expect that just when she was about to doze off, someone brought her a pillow. Dong Haoyuan was really sensible.

"I asked the general to come here to ask you a favor." Qin Yaoguang said.

"Your Highness, please give your orders."

Hu Yanjin grinned and said in a muffled voice: "The general has given orders. Your Highness' orders are his orders."

Regardless of whether it is just a polite remark, this sentence does sound comfortable.

Especially, coming from the mouth of a brave general like him who seems to have no idea how to scheme, it is particularly believable.

Qin Yaoguang suddenly understood why Yan Changqing chose Hu Yanjin at this critical juncture.

His appearance is so deceptive.

"Chunfen, tell General Huyan everything about the plum garden from beginning to end."

"Yes."

Although the Spring Equinox arrived later, she quickly figured out the whole story and immediately recounted it to Hu Yanjin in an orderly manner.

After hearing this, Hu Yanjin rubbed his head and said generously: "Your Highness, I will beat whoever you want me to beat!"

Chunfen almost laughed out loud, but quickly lowered his head and covered his mouth.

Qin Yaoguang didn't want to hold back, and suddenly laughed, "General, there's no need to beat anyone up. I'd like to trouble you to go to Marquis Boyuan's mansion and bring back the fifth young master who climbed through the dog hole."

Nothing could be a better cover than this.

As everyone knows, the wife of Marquis Boyuan is Yan Changqing's aunt and the only relative left in the world.

In terms of seniority, Qin Yaoguang is her nephew's wife.

If the fifth young master she gave birth to had committed a crime and had simply paid the ransom, it would have been fine. But now that Dong Haoyuan had sneaked back, if Qin Yaoguang went to his house to question him, she would inevitably be accused of being unfilial and unkind.

But if she doesn't punish them, so many young masters in Meiyuan have paid the ransom, and Dong Haoyuan, who escaped, is the only exception. How can Qin Yaoguang win the support of the people in the future?

From now on, the eldest princess’s reputation will no longer be effective.

Since you dare to disobey her orders and sneak away, it should be known to everyone. The consequences of angering her will be even more serious.

Originally, Qin Yaoguang didn't mind coming in person. She was not as love-brained as the original owner and was afraid of offending Yan Changqing's aunt.

But now there is a way to kill three birds with one stone, it would be a waste not to use it.

Hu Yanjin is Yan Changqing's man, and his visit is equivalent to representing Yan Changqing.

Although Lady Boyuanhou is the elder, Dong Haoyuan is Yan Changqing's cousin.

Although it is a bit far-fetched for a cousin to discipline his disobedient cousin, fortunately Yan Changqing still has the title of Duke Zhenguo, and it is natural for him to discipline the clansmen within the five degrees of mourning.

Qin Yaoguang didn't know whether Hu Yanjin understood the twists and turns involved, but he agreed immediately and turned around to get to work.

Qin Yaoguang hurriedly said: "General, please stay!"

This guy is really the Impatient Zhang Fei. Is he the Impatient King?

"Princess, do you have any other instructions?" Hu Yanjin paused, turned around and asked.

He was tall and had long legs. In just two sentences, Hu Yanjin had already walked out of the flower hall with big strides.

Qin Yaoguang asked Chunfen to watch the way to the flower hall and called Hu Yanjin back.

What she ordered next was the real reason why she wanted to meet Hu Yanjin.
