The villain is far from my CP!

"Go back to your hometown?" The common man Qi Jingmin was lying in the small courtyard, surrounded by several maids in court attire, feeding charcoal and nuts, how could he look like a common man?

It was clearly just moving from the palace to a high-end homestay!

Moreover, this homestay is not far from the imperial palace, which is the original site of Shenghe.

Shenghe was sealed, and all the contracts were cleared immediately, and the bank was completely unable to do so.

But the shopkeeper of Shenghe escaped the catastrophe, and now advises Qi Jingmin to abandon Dongdu and return to the main business cabinet workshop.

Isn't Qian Fang entrenched in the Eastern Capital?They changed their face and opened the wide shop branch.

The cadres are limited by the need for on-the-spot investigations, so they can only be limited to the vicinity of the Eastern Capital, but the cabinet workshops are different.

In the past, the cabinets were limited to local areas, and the bills issued after changing counties were likely to be invalid, so that it was dangerous and inconvenient for businessmen traveling across the country to bring large amounts of silver.

But if there is a cabinet shop with the ability to spread semicolons across dozens of counties in Dahui, that would be an absolute feat!

This transaction has surpassed the nature of the cabinet to guard the silver, and it can also allow the silver to circulate faster and at a lower cost.

Inspired by Baiqiao, shopkeeper Sheng has already thought of a name for this new business: ticket number.

After receiving the cash at the counter, a ticket is issued, and the merchant only needs to go to the branch of the counter shop in other places with the ticket to cash out the cash.

Qi Jingmin agreed, and recently heard from Shopkeeper Sheng that some results have been achieved.

His gloomy mood was originally better because of this incident, but now it was covered by the haze.

"Qianfang was so monitored that even a fly couldn't get out. How did she get back to her hometown? Qianfang must have hid her. Let me teach you how to do it!"

When the young man was angry, the ears that had been buried in the down of the cloak were exposed.

Missing half of his right ear, without the flair of a red mole, he looks like a hooligan.

The attendant who was kneeling to report the situation tried his best not to let his eyes look over, but sometimes the more he wanted to stop it, the more he couldn't control it, and his eyes suddenly drifted past the young man's mutilated ears.

The next moment, there was a moment of silence in the yard, and then there were screams one after another.

Blood stained the bluestone slab red, and the maids knelt down on the ground in horror.

Qi Jingmin put away the crossbow on his wrist, with a crazy and gloomy expression on his face.

Qianfang Bank, Qi Tonghe knew early on that he would not be able to stop the searchers, so he let the forbidden army in after a short delay.

Ganfang's business is all on paper, and there are no valuables for the imperial army to smash, but there is no big commotion.

The commander of the imperial army stared at Qi Tonghe's flattering smile and sneered, and began to search for the secret room himself.

The order he got was: Even if he can't marry Baiqiao, he must check the Qianfang inside and out, and find evidence that the Qianfang stole the account books of the household department.

However, it is a pity that the commander-in-chief searched for a full three hours. From noon to dusk, Baiqiao's hiding place was still in good condition, and even the secret room on the ground was not found.

He also found some files in the secret room he found, but they were all related to serious business, so he didn't find Baiqiao, nor did he find any evidence, so he couldn't do business when he went back...

Lord Commander's eyes became dangerous, and he said in a deep voice, "Dongdu Qi's family, but you are a daughter of the Qi family?"

"It's the little old man's relative." Qi Tonghe bowed his head and said.

However, the commander of the forbidden army sneered: "Lie!"

"That woman is clearly the concubine of the Bai family in Jiangdu. She changed her face and smuggled to Dongdu more than two years ago. I don't know what dirty purpose it is. You have provided her with a place to stay for so long. What crime should you deserve!"

Qi Tonghe was not surprised that they found Baiqiao's true identity, but the surprise on his face was more real than the real surprise.

"The concubine of the Bai family?!" He widened his eyes and asked in a serious manner, "But the little girl surnamed Bai Mingqiao?"

The commander didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in Qitonghe's gourd, but he nodded anyway.

Then Qi Tonghe clapped his hands suddenly, and said with a strange expression: "The Qi girl you are looking for has indeed returned to her hometown, and she is not the same person as that white girl. She has already been engaged to her, how can she marry the second girl?" You two, don't the adults in the palace know about it?"

Do you give me a marriage without inquiring clearly?

It's also ridiculous.

This thought came to the crowd secretly watching.

The commander of the forbidden army was stunned, got a marriage contract?

Neither he nor the queen had ever thought about this matter, so they never went to the Yamen to check it.

"Stop prevaricating," the commander said coldly, "If it's a marriage contract that was just made orally, my royal family will not recognize it!"

Qi Tonghe laughed lightly, straightened his spine slowly, then took out a red envelope from his bosom, and said leisurely: "I filed a record with the government in July last year with my son Lang Qizheng, but It's true."

Qi Tonghe's voice wasn't too loud, but it was loud enough for the neighbors around to watch the excitement clearly.

The commander of the imperial army didn't believe it, he took the red seal and looked at it, but it was really a document with the official seal!

His eyelids twitched, and he secretly scolded the empress for the bad idea of ​​that woman, while frantically thinking about ways to break the situation in his mind.

But the surrounding people saw his expression after checking the red seal, and they knew that the red seal might be real, and there was a huge discussion.

The common people didn't know that this white girl was the same person as Mr. Qi, the tiger fairy whom they both hated and loved. They only regarded her as an ordinary little lady, so they skipped the gossip and shifted their attention to the commander of the forbidden army and today's wedding party. up.

"Everyone has a marriage contract, what does this mean in the palace?"

"Besides, what mistake did that eldest prince make to directly demote him to a commoner, and marry a merchant girl?"

"It's also strange. After being demoted to a commoner, you still engage in such a big show to give a marriage? What is this? Are you looking for someone to be buried with you?"

Everyone's voices were not loud, but it was extremely embarrassing for the commander of the imperial army, so he had to shut his mouth and retreat first.

At the same time, Bai Qiao was still writing in silence in the secret room.

She is not sensitive to politics, but this matter is completely inseparable from politics, so she imitates Qi Changting's thinking angle, trying to figure out the next move of the court.

Qi Jingmin's relegation to common people shows that the ministers in the court are not weak, even if it is only in name, it is indeed the most serious punishment besides death.

Since it's not the Queen's words, if she wants to deduct the front-line military rations, she must have a reasonable excuse.

For example, due to the floods of the previous year, the national treasury was empty and food and grass were insufficient.

The girl stroked her chin with a quill, lost in thought.

It is of course false to say that there is no food. If this can be proved, the prestige of the court will collapse, and the enemy will be destroyed without attack.

But this is difficult and dangerous.

So, what if she followed suit and took it as real?

Assuming that the imperial court really wanted to help the two Highnesses guard the frontier, but it was too much to do, then...

Is it time to do a fundraiser?

The treasury has no money and no food, and the officials have accumulated a lot of money for so many years, so they must have saved a lot of private money.

When the country is in trouble, everyone is responsible. Since the treasury can't afford it, they should provide some support.

Bai Qiao thought, with a sly smile on his lips.

She thinks this is feasible, but, as a businesswoman, she seems to be separated from the high-ranking officials by the Great Rift Valley, so she can't let others hear her proposal.

She needs to find a collaborator, a spokesperson.

This person needs to have a high sense of presence in the circle of noble women in the eastern capital, and his words are very effective.

Bai Qiao really didn't know the circle of noble girls in the Eastern Capital, so he tried to recall some plots in the novel, and suddenly remembered the heroine of the original book, that is, a career line of Ye Huan.

In the original book, the Turks also invaded. At that time, the imperial court was really unable to provide food because of Ling Xun, so Ye Huan launched a fundraiser in the Eastern Capital, and wrote a touching and brilliant proposal.

So, this Miss Ye actually wanted to help?

At first, Bai Qiao thought that the broken CP had something to do with not only Qi Jingmin in Ye Huan's heart, but now that the male protagonist's filter was completely broken, Bai Qiao felt that Ye Huan really liked Qi Jingmin like in the book, which would be a joke in the world.

Otherwise, she would find a way to meet Ye Huan?

All preparations in the Prime Minister's Mansion are still strictly guarded.

The prime minister Ye Lu and his daughter Ye Huan, as the witnesses of the night palace change, have not left the palace for five days.

The queen called Ye Lu into the palace on the second day of the palace change, and talked about Qi Jingmin and Ye Huan's marriage again.

Ye Lv was shocked at the time, he carried the reputation of the Ye family on his shoulders, but if Qi Jingmin could have a fig leaf for what he did, he would not be preparing to write a joint letter to punish Qi Jingmin's crimes.

The queen actually came to talk to him about marriage at such a time.

He naturally and euphemistically expressed his refusal, and then he was "sick" euphemistically.

It's just that even though he was ill, the food and clothing expenses of the Prime Minister's Mansion remained the same, and the daily necessities were delivered to the door by a special person, and even this day, the Shangyi Envoy from the palace came in person to customize the first month's tenth day for Ye Huan. Five new clothes.

The imperial court's attitude towards Ye Fu is like a parent's attitude towards a child who is throwing a tantrum, strict but conniving.

When the palace envoy came, Ye Huan was practicing calligraphy in the room, and only slowly raised his eyes after the maid reported.

The expression in the pupil is complicated.

In the palace, she doesn't know what kind of attitude she should report to the palace now.

Originally thought that Qi Changting was so sharp that he should have the power to fight Qi Jingmin, but he didn't want to...

That person actually gave up the current good situation and ran to the western border to fight against the Turks.

Can't he wait?Picking up sesame seeds and losing watermelon is such an obvious thing, why can't you figure it out?

Ye Huan was so focused on his own affairs that he didn't notice who the clothes emissaries sent by the palace were.

Until the room quieted down at some point, a familiar voice came from next to my ear:

"Miss Ye."

Ye Huan was taken aback for a moment, and then jumped back like a frightened rabbit.

She froze and looked at the woman not far in front of her, her face was like a peach blossom, her eyes were like spring water...

"Qi, Miss Qi," Ye Huan was so startled that he couldn't speak, "what are you, why are you here!"

Alarm bells rang in Ye Huan's mind, the Prime Minister's Mansion was heavily guarded, how did Bai Qiao get in!

Moreover, strictly speaking, she and Bai Qiao are rivals in love, what good can a rival in love do?

But the facts proved that it was indeed not a good thing, but it was not the bad thing Ye Huan imagined.

"Funds? Donate military rations?" Ye Huan felt like he was listening to some kind of Arabian Nights. "The military rations are prepared by the imperial court. Why..."

Ye Huan spoke halfway, and then slowly paused under Bai Qiao's solemn gaze, his pupils constricted for a while.

She is an official girl, and under the influence of Ye's family since she was a child, Bai Qiao can imagine all these tyrants in court, how could she not understand.

In the current situation, Qi Jingmin is afraid that he will not let Qi Changting go, and the best way to do this is to start with the army's supplies.

Ye Huan was frightened for a while. Although she was born in the Ye family, it was the first time she had come into contact with the bloody battle for the throne.

After New Year's Eve, she had nightmares for three full days, but now, someone wanted her to go one step further.

She is still a woman, a merchant girl, and the most outrageous thing is that the two of them should be rivals in love.

For a moment, the intention of Baiqiao's move actually overwhelmed the fear.

Ye Huan couldn't help asking: "Why me, you should know that our relationship is not good."

Didn't ask about the main contradiction of raising food, but went straight to the minor contradiction of character relationship?

Bai Qiao was taken aback for a moment, and then felt happy, which in her opinion meant agreeing to the main contradiction.

The heroine is indeed a good girl with a big heart, completely different from Qi Jingmin, the scum, and she was really wronged in the novel.

Of course, although Ye Huan seems to be interested in Qi Changting, Qi Changting himself has the final say on this matter.

The girl smiled slightly and said sincerely: "The last time I saw her, I knew that the girl has a warm heart and a heart for the common people. If there are major issues concerning the common people, she will definitely not sit idly by."

Before half a cup of tea, Ye Huan, who was still sighing secretly about Qi Changting picking up sesame seeds and throwing watermelons, couldn't help the reddening of his ears, but at the same time couldn't help but look at the woman in front of him more seriously.

She had never seen such a woman, her appearance was unmatched by any noble lady in this eastern capital, and she was thinking about things that no noble lady would ever think about.

The moon gate in her yard had blocked her for more than ten years, but in the consciousness of the person in front of her, it was probably just a wide open gate.

Facing the translucent apricot eyes of the person in front of him, Ye Huan involuntarily turned his eyes away.

"I want to discuss this matter with my family," she said.

Bai Qiao immediately beamed with joy, and bowed his hands, "Then wait for the girl's good news."

Bai Qiao was already used to men's hands-on salute, so she withdrew without thinking about it. After all, she was brought in by relying on the party's buddy to knock out the real Shangyi envoy, so she couldn't stay for long.

Leaving Ye Huan stunned in place, recalling that free and easy salute, he didn't know whether to return her salute or blessing.

Ye Huan lowered his head, looked at his hand, raised it jerkyly, clenched a fist in one hand, and half-clenched the other hand, forming a bow salute, and then suddenly his nose was sore, and he almost shed tears.

On the other side, Qianfang Bank.

Several guys sat around a table with Qi Tonghe, but no one spoke.

When Baiqiao told them about his decision to raise food last night, everyone was ecstatic, but the little girl quietly added: "It's only for the people in the frontier, not for power."

Qi Tonghe's face froze immediately, isn't that exactly what he said to Baiqiao during the day?

If it's not for power, then it's not for his son?

But Qi Tonghe didn't dare to say more, and smiled sarcastically.

After Baiqiao set off early this morning, he called his confidants to a meeting.

After an unknown amount of time, the hot tea in front of him was no longer steaming, and Qi Tonghe finally let out a faint sigh.

"She's a nice girl." It's just...

With his son, I don't know what the result will be in the end.

One of the clerks took a bold look at Qi Tonghe, and muttered: "It's not because of your mouth, the shopkeeper, even if the little lady calms down, she won't really say... Hey!"

The man dodged nimbly to avoid the hot tea splashed by Qi Tonghe, and didn't dare to make a sound.

"Hey, let's get down to business," Qi Tonghe changed the subject, "The Ye family may not be trustworthy, so we have to make second-hand preparations. Miss Bai gave me another plan this morning. You guys pass it on first. If there is anything you don't understand, wait. When Miss Bai comes back, ask as soon as possible."

Everyone shouted yes.

In this way, Ganfang remained peaceful for another ten days.

After Shenghe withdrew from the bank market in Dongdu, Ganfang's business expanded rapidly. It had already bought another storefront in the back street, opened up the middle, and doubled the area.

And Qianfang's insurance business has finally entered the Dongdu stage belatedly.

The slogan put forward is very inspiring, called "everything can be guaranteed".

Children in the family can go to school insured, as long as they pay a fee every year after entering school, and if they pass the township examination, general examination, and palace examination, they will return a fee at a higher rate every year for convenience.

Health and safety can be guaranteed. All ordinary people who are healthy now but worry about getting seriously ill in the future can exchange the current low annual rate for a one-time high compensation provided by the party when they get sick before the age of 40.

There are also accidents that can be guaranteed. The goods of the bodyguard company, the personal safety of the bodyguard, and even the property of the merchant can now pay the fee every year.

It's just that the insurance premium rate and the terms that trigger compensation must be determined according to the survey of the party involved. The higher the risk of accident, the higher the premium rate.

In the relatively modern and turbulent ancient times, when this incident happened, it caused a sensation. Whether it was a rich businessman, an official or a commoner, who didn't worry that God would suddenly be happy and slap him in the face?So they were eager to try something new.

However, on the second day after the announcement of the new insurance business was posted, the common people and wealthy businessmen were still enthusiastic, but those servants in the official's house who had been mixed in the team suddenly disappeared.

Not only the servants, but even the officials who had previously saved deposits from the cadres, tried to terminate the contract early, waived the interest and paid the storage fee for the counter business, and had to take it out in a hurry.

Ganfang has been implementing Baiqiao's risk management and control measures, and only [-]% of all deposits are willing to be loaned out.

Even after Shenghe Dynasty went bankrupt, this ratio was reduced to [-]%, so now it can cope with the sudden loss of deposits.

But Baiqiao's expression was unprecedentedly serious.

Something is wrong. This abnormal large-scale withdrawal of silver must be because they heard some news, which is not good for the dry party, and only these high-ranking officials know it now.

For some reason, Bai Qiao's mind involuntarily floated back to her mind. A year ago, she went to Xingyang to investigate in order to avoid Qi Changting, and then heard the rumor on the side of the road that "the prince was assassinated and was seriously injured and dying".

The right eyelid was beating uncontrollably, as fast as the heart.

The girl suddenly raised her eyes, strode out of her room, and then turned into a trot, rushing towards Qi Tonghe's private room.

When he was about to arrive, Baiqiao slowed down his pace, because there were faint conversations in the private room.

Qi Tonghe's private room is also soundproof, but they are very close to the door, so close that the white bridge is attached to the door, and some can be heard.

The owner of the voice gave her a severe shudder.

He Cheng? !

——He Cheng, who only set off from Qianfang to the front line fifteen days ago, how could he come back at this time!

What about Qi Changting?

Bai Qiao's mind was so blank that he didn't even think about why He Cheng would stand by the door.

The next moment, the door was jerked open.

Covered in blood, the embarrassed young guard was holding clean clothes, probably about to wash them, when he saw the girl at the door, he was frightened and took a step back.

"He Cheng, it's really you..." Baiqiao's pupils narrowed sharply, and he murmured almost silently: "What about him, what about the Third Highness?"

He Cheng opened his mouth, not daring to say anything.

However, Baiqiao had already guessed something.

No wonder so many officials came to collect the silver today. It is no secret that the third prince is behind the party. They, what do they know...

Bai Qiao's throat twitched, and he stared closely at He Cheng, as well as Qi Tonghe who was also caught off guard behind He Cheng.

He Cheng received the order and must not let Bai Qiao know, but he didn't know how much Bai Qiao heard.

"Your Highness, Your Highness, he forgot an important thing, let me come back and get it." He Cheng murmured indiscriminately, but suddenly, Qi Tonghe's calm and deep voice came from behind him.

"Young master is missing, girl, Mr. Bai, help him."

The author has something to say:

Qi Changting: Do I always ask my wife to rescue me in my highlight moments? !What is the meaning of this male lead!
