    Chapter Index

    While Du Yaoyao was recuperating from her injuries, she began to manage the dowry shop under her name.

    After solving the life and death crisis, the next step is to plan a plan to save money.

    The mountains will fall, and everyone will run away. Shen Jie and the Du family are not as reliable as having some financial income of their own.

    The shopkeepers of the four shops are all from Qingzhou, and they mostly listen to Du Qing’s orders.Last time, because the original owner climbed into his cousin’s bed and had an unpleasant quarrel with the Yongning Marquis, Du Qing threatened that if she didn’t come to apologize, he would cut off the source of her shop.

    Du Yaoyao first ordered people to spend money to find a few talented people and place them in the shop to study. When the time was right, he directly took over the position of shopkeeper and returned the old people to Qingzhou to get rid of the shackles of Du Qing.

    Two shops sell pens, ink, paper and inkstones, and the other two sell umbrellas and fans, with average income.Du Yaoyao has been flipping through her books in the past few days, thinking about what kind of business to change her career to make money.

    Sure enough, every move she made could not escape Shen Jie’s eyes and ears.That night Shen Jie came over and said straight to the point with a smile: “I heard that Yaoyao’s shop is hiring?”

    Du Yaoyao rested for a few days and recovered from her back injury. She poured a cup of tea and handed it to Shen Jie, “You know, several of the shopkeepers in my shop are from my father’s side. I want to train a few that I can use.” She didn’t hide it from him, and she was honest.

    Shen Jie thought, “Are the people I find from outside reliable? I also have some shops under my control, and some of the managers are quite smart. If you want them, how many can I give you?”

    Is there any difference between someone who uses you and someone who uses my dad?

    If I offend you one day, you might be just like Du Qing, threatening me with inducements and cutting off my financial resources.

    Du Yaoyao cursed in her heart, but she didn’t show it on her face. She smiled sweetly and said, “I want to do something on my own without relying on you and my father. Why, don’t you think I can do it?”

    “How could it be? Yaoyao is very capable at first glance.” Shen Jie glanced at her frivolously and took a sip of tea.

    His words seemed serious, but Du Yaoyao always felt that he was taking the opportunity to engage in pornography.

    It’s still early in the night and I don’t want to get into deep flirting.She changed the subject, “Did the matter of my cousin falling into the water be found out later?”

    There is no doubt that the mastermind is King Chen. Du Yaoyao asked how King Chen reached into the Lin Mansion and forced Zhang Nu and Qiu Yue to do things for him.

    Shen Jie said: “The servant woman’s son was tricked into a gambling house by King Chen’s people and lost tens of thousands of taels of silver. If he can’t get the money back, he will definitely pay for it with his life. So the servant woman and the maid have to obey orders.”

    Du Yaoyao thought deeply, “The gambling house should be opened by King Chen?”

    “Well,” Shen Jie added, “the arm under the servant girl’s bed was King Chen’s shock to the two of them for disobeying orders at the beginning.”

    Du Yaoyao guessed it.Thinking of the rotten and stinky bones in the black jar, she couldn’t help but shudder.Chu Xun is really a man with sinister intentions.

    “Yaoyao, don’t think about it.” Shen Jie noticed Du Yaoyao’s fear and leaned forward to hug her, “I will not put you in danger again.”

    Compared to Chu Xun, Shen Jie is ruthless but can distinguish right from wrong and will not kill innocent people indiscriminately to achieve his goals.The prince is also an elegant and wise monarch in the book.

    Although Du Yaoyao was dissatisfied with Shen Jie, she still recognized his side’s position.

    Their clothes were close to each other, and she smelled a faint smell of blood on him.His eyes wandered curiously, and he saw a stain on his sleeve, which looked like a blood stain.

    “What is this?” Du Yaoyao pointed there and asked.On the dark green bamboo pattern fabric, this flaw is really conspicuous.

    “Huh?” Shen Jie lowered his head, suddenly surprised, with a somewhat cold look on his face, “Today during the spring hunting at the hunting ground, King Chen openly provoked the prince in front of others!”

    According to common sense, when Du Yaoyao heard this, she should have kept silent.In ancient times, the harem was not allowed to interfere in politics. She, a little wife of an official, was not suitable to get involved in the topics of the battles between princes.

    She has a special status and is related by blood to the Yongning Hou Mansion.To put it bluntly, the bones are broken and the tendons are connected.

    Xu was deeply disgusted by Chu Xun’s actions, and Xu was sympathetic to the bloodshed and sacrifice of innocent civilians.She chose to ask, “How do you say provocation?”

    Shen Jie looked at Du Yaoyao in surprise. She was usually not interested in political affairs.But since she opened her mouth, he was willing to talk to her.

    “Today the emperor took his princes and ministers on a spring hunting trip. King Chen used the excuse of chasing a fox to deliberately shoot the prince’s horse.”

    It is not a trivial matter for a horse to be frightened. It can cause bruises at the least, or fall to death at worst.

    Du Yaoyao was concerned, “Is the prince okay?”

    “Fortunately, there is no danger.” Shen Jie breathed out, “The prince is skilled in martial arts, and I am also here to help.”

    “That’s good.” Du Yaoyao nodded.The blood stain must have been accidentally spattered while saving the prince.

    If the prince encounters disaster and King Chen comes to power, regardless of the misfortune of the court and the suffering of the people, she will definitely be snatched into the palace by King Chen and become a poor concubine.

    “What’s the emperor’s attitude?” Du Yaoyao asked.She knew that the prince was not favored.

    Shen Jie curled his lips lightly, “The Holy Emperor ordered that King Chen is not good at riding and shooting. He should not hunt with his brother in the future.”

    I really prefer to go to my grandma’s house!

    Du Yaoyao sighed, the emperor loved Wujiwu, was madly in love with Concubine Ruan, and tolerated King Chen again and again.

    If I remember correctly, in the original book, the emperor suddenly fell ill at the end of next month, and the prince reported that King Chen had violated the harem and raped many of his wives.The evidence was conclusive, but the emperor still protected him, ordered the prince to keep quiet, and temporarily banned King Chen.

    One of the pieces of evidence was sent from Prince Chen’s Mansion.The emperor turned a blind eye.

    The prince was heartbroken and helpless, so Shen Jie came up with a plan and released false news: the emperor was furious because of King Chen’s affair with his concubine, and vowed to kill the evil son.

    King Chen felt guilty and led his troops into the palace, partly to test the truth and partly to plot rebellion.Shen Jie ambushed Xuanwu Gate in advance, and the two fought. King Chen was shot dead by Shen Jie in front of Taiji Hall with an arrow.

    The emperor abdicated the throne that day in favor of a worthy person and passed the reigns to the prince.

    Shen Jie led his troops to massacre all the hundreds of people in Prince Chen’s residence, old, young, women, and children.The Marquis of Yongning participated in the seizure of the heir, and no one in the house was spared.

    Since ancient times, the struggle for the throne has rarely involved bloodshed and sacrifice.As a modern person, Du Yaoyao was horrified that this method was cruel and cruel.

    Du Yaoyao recalled the details in the book, hoping to find a good way to avoid many casualties.

    In the flash of lightning, a delicate and fair face of a guard appeared in her mind.

    ——Mu Feng!

    In the original book, Mu Feng was not killed by Shen Jie, but committed suicide by rebelling against his master.

    The evidence that King Chen had raped many wives was provided by he to the prince.

    He is a person with a conscience.

    Mu Feng is not only the general manager of Prince Chen’s Mansion, but also the leader in charge of Prince Chen’s effective deployment and guard warriors.

    How to win Mu Feng over early and make him available to the prince?

    Du Yaoyao racked her brains and finally came up with some clues.Mu Feng’s mother and Zhang Concubine of the Lin Mansion seemed to be distant cousins.

    Mu Feng later rebelled and learned that the death of Zhang Nu and his son was caused by King Chen.

    Mu Feng doesn’t know now. What if Shen Jie sends someone to tip him off?Will Mu Feng still be loyal to King Chen?

    Damn, I’m such a little genius!Du Yaoyao smiled happily.

    “What’s wrong, Yaoyao?” Shen Jie giggled when he saw her.

    Du Yaoyao wanted to hide it but said: “Husband, I had a dream last night.”

    “What dream?”

    Du Yaoyao explained the relationship between Mu Feng and Zhang Nu in detail.

    The more Shen Jie listened, the more surprised he became. News was spreading in all directions, but he had never heard that these two people were related.

    “Mu Feng’s mother died a long time ago. He was taken in by King Chen since he was a child. He has little contact with Zhang Nu. You don’t know what’s normal.” Du Yaoyao said.

    “A graceful dream is extraordinary!” Shen Jie teased.

    Du Yaoyao was modest, “I can’t guarantee that it will be accurate. Why don’t you try it? I won’t lose a piece of meat for you if you make a mistake.”

    “Thank you, madam.” Shen Jie lowered his head and kissed her.
