110: Shang Junyan Always Attracts Hatred

, the latest chapter is updated the fastest!

The sudden reward from the Queen surprised and delighted Su Jingmo and others. They said to Su Xinyi: "The Queen's reward will be good for your reputation if it is spread out in the future."

After all, the Queen is the mother of a country, and the reward is not something that anyone can get.

Su Baiwei felt that the matter was not simple, and said to her sisters: "Today, only the people around the Queen came to visit. Without the Queen's imperial decree, it cannot be considered a formal reward."

If the Queen really wanted to thank Xinyi sincerely, she should have written this matter into the imperial decree, and then walked in through the main gate of the Duke of Qi's Mansion to announce the decree, instead of letting a nanny carry two boxes to deliver it and finish the job.

From the Queen's perfunctory attitude towards this matter, it can be seen that she is probably unhappy with her sixth sister.

Su Xinyi nodded slightly after hearing what Su Baiwei said, "Big sister is right, I think so too."

Su Chaoyan and the others looked at each other in surprise. They were all unmarried women, and of course they were not as clear about these things as the big sister who had been the wife of the prince and had dealt with the palace.

Su Baiwei patiently guided the little sisters and explained to them the seriousness of this.

Su Xixian said with a bad face: "So, the queen used two boxes of things to send Xinyi away? Is this to send a beggar? The life of Prince Rong is worth one box? It's really cheap!"

Everyone:...

This is a good pun!

A few little girls were mumbling, and the lady and others over there also heard a little. The third lady also recovered at this time, and the surprise on her face was gone. She looked at this, looked at that, and then shut up.

The queen did not do this thing properly, just like pinching a fly made of sugar to give to the people of the Duke of Qi's Mansion. It was disgusting enough whether they ate it or not.

The Madam only let the First Madam come to the palace to thank her without Su Xinyi, saying that Su Xinyi was in bed due to the cold and rain. This was also a subtle attitude of the Duke of Qi's Mansion.

Since the Queen looked down on our Xinyi, we won't go to you to get in the way.

Besides, it was true that Su Xinyi was sick.

Su Xinyi was kept in the mansion by the Madam to recuperate, so she stayed at home and did not go out. Every morning, she would dance with the knife given by the old man, then go to the study to read, and then follow Madam She to learn some necessary skills for a lady. She accompanied her mother for three meals a day, and from time to time, several sisters came to her for tea and chat. She lived a comfortable life.

A few days later, the case of private salt was reported to the emperor by the Crown Prince in court, and the whole court was in an uproar, especially since the matter involved the Duke of Qin's Mansion. This was shocking, and it was inevitable to think of the divorce of the eldest lady of the Duke of Qi's Mansion and the prince of the Duke of Qin's Mansion some time ago.

The private salt involved the foundation of the country. His Majesty was furious and ordered the prince to lead a thorough investigation of the case.

Su Xinyi was slightly startled after hearing the news. It had changed. Things had changed. In the previous life, it was Prince Rong who was in charge of the private salt case, but now it was the prince!

Su Xinyi was satisfied. This was really good news. The queen in the palace must be in a particularly bad mood at this time.

The queen was in a bad mood, so she was happy.

"Miss." Lian Qiao walked in, "The gatehouse sent a message in that two people wanted to see the girl. They were not very old. One was called Tian Zao and the other was called Bao Datong."

Su Xinyi was stunned and chuckled. She thought Tian Zao would come back in a few days, but she didn't expect him to come now. After thinking for a while, she said, "Call them in. I'll ask them a few questions and then arrange them."

At the beginning, she promised Zeng Liang to send them to the army. Now that they are here, she has to settle this matter properly.

The two came very quickly, one fat and one thin, both dressed neatly. When they saw Su Xinyi, they came forward to greet her, "Hello, Sixth Miss."

Su Xinyi looked at the two of them. Tian Zao was calmer, and Bao Datong looked a little uneasy. She smiled and said, "I thought you would come back in a few days. Is Master Zeng okay?"

Tian Zao calmed down. This was the first time in his life that he entered the Duke's Mansion. He resisted the urge to show his timidity. After hearing what Sixth Miss said, he said, "Master Zeng is fine. Thank you for your concern, Sixth Miss."

Su Xinyi was happy. This boy spoke in a refined manner, not like a little beggar.

"We have something here, maybe Sixth Miss can use it." Tian Zao opened his bag and took out a thick stack of paper from it. It looked a bit old.

Su Xinyi asked curiously, "What is this?"

"Sixth Miss, you will know after you take a look." Tian Zao handed the thing to Lian Qiao and stepped back to stand with Bao Datong and said.

Su Xinyi became interested and took the things that Lian Qiao handed over. She looked down and her smile froze. There were various bills and documents, pawn tickets, salt permits, and deeds of various silver houses and wineries. The years on them were different.

She took out one of the permits and looked at the year written on it. It was seven years ago.

Salt permits are divided into long permits and short permits. Long permits are sold on foreign roads, and short permits are sold on local roads. Long permits are for one year and short permits are for half a year. Each permit has a number and is divided into front and back volumes. After stamping, it is divided into two parts from the middle. The back volume is called the permit paper for merchants, and the stub of the front volume is called the permit stub.

The permit paper in Su Xinyi's hand is the permit paper left in the hands of the merchants. Although she doesn't understand the power of it, she also knows that this thing is used when picking up salt, but now this half of the permit paper appears here, which is not in accordance with the rules.

Su Xinyi flipped through the remaining papers again and saw that there were still many such permits. Her heart was beating, and she looked at Tian Zao for a long time without saying a word.

This guy is a man who does great things quietly. He gave her such a big surprise without saying a word.

She looked at Tian Zao intently and asked, "Where did you get these things?"

Tian Zao didn't answer but asked, "Are these things enough for our brother's house expenses?"

Su Xinyi chuckled lightly, feeling that Tian Zao's temper was a bit interesting. He didn't want to owe her any favors. She nodded, "Enough, not just enough, but more."

After all, Tian Zao was still a young man who hadn't grown up yet, and he wasn't as shameless as Su Xinyi, so he just stood there with a blush on his face and said nothing.

Su Xinyi put the things away and asked, "Where did these come from?"

When it came to business, Tian Zao's expression became much calmer, "I found it in the house of the person who was guarding the private treasury."

Su Xinyi was stunned, "Isn't the person guarding the private treasury the one who ran away from his wife in such a crazy way?"

Tian Zao nodded, "It's him, but the one who ran away was not his wife, but his sister-in-law. She was just putting on a show for everyone to see, so that the people in the south of the city would not dare to go to the private vault so that they could hide things."

Su Xinyi:......

This routine was similar to what she had guessed at the beginning. The only thing she didn't guess was that the old man's wife was his eldest sister-in-law. The eldest sister-in-law ran away and the eldest brother followed, and the whole family reunited.

"Did you take these things from that old man's house?" Su Xinyi now understood and asked.

Tian Zao nodded.

Looking at him like this, what is there that he doesn't understand? The news Zeng Liang gave him was true, but he also left part of it for Tian Zao, asking him to use it to submit his name.

This Zeng Liang is really... scheming.

Su Xinyi put away the things, thought for a while and said, "Now that you are here, what are your plans?"

Tian Zao didn't know what Miss Six was thinking, so he paused before saying, "Master Zeng said that we should come and listen to Miss Six's arrangements."

Zeng Liang, this old fox!

Su Xinyi thought for a while and said: "It's OK to arrange for you to go to the guard station now, but I think you are still young. If you really go to the border guard station, it is not a place of enjoyment. The death and injury rate of the border guard station is very high every year." Gao Gao, if you want to take revenge and survive, you have to practice your skills well. If you have no other ideas, I will let Zhan Qiao and Cao Qing lead you. You can learn from them and really go to Wei in the future. So, try your best to ensure that you are still alive after taking revenge. One day, I will celebrate your success when you come back."

Tian Zao was stunned and looked at Bao Datong. Bao Datong's eyes were red with gratitude. He pursed his lips and gritted his teeth to prevent himself from crying.

Su Xinyi looked at these two people and thought of himself back then. Not everyone can bear the word "forbearance".

Tian Zao and Bao Datong knew the sixth girl's good intentions, so they said: "Then we will be errand runners for you. In addition to practicing kungfu, you can ask us to do anything else when you have anything else to do. There is no place in the capital that our brothers don't know about." Son."

Being a beggar, of course, means walking wherever there are people. You can beg for food all over the capital, and you can travel all over the country for one, two, three, or five years.

"Okay!" Su Xinyi agreed immediately. The two boys were ambitious and refused to settle for nothing, so of course she had to help them.

Besides, there are quite a lot of things on her side, and having them here can indeed solve a lot of problems.

Su Xinyi knew that Tian Zao was the one who made the decision between the two, so she looked at him and said, "The accommodation arranged for you is next to Zhan Qiao and the others, so that it is convenient for you to ask for advice and practice." After a pause, he said with a smile, "Zhan Qiao and Cao Qing is a direct descendant of our Su family, so learn from him."

Tian Zao looked surprised and immediately thanked her sincerely, "Thank you Miss Six."

Su Xinyi asked Delphinium to take them to Zhan Qiao and the others, and then told her, "Let the little girl go to the warehouse to get the bedding and clothes, and the monthly salary will come out of my name."

"Yes." Delphinium responded with a smile, and left with the two of them.

Before leaving, Tian Zao glanced back for some reason and saw Miss Six sitting there, holding the deed and bills he presented and looking at them carefully.

Many years later, Tian Zao had already become a well-known general stationed at the border. His machete frightened the enemies. It was the time when he was running errands under the Sixth Girl that he often missed.

The more Su Xinyi turned over these bills, the more doubts she felt in her heart. She knew that the Yanyin case was of great importance, but she was not sure how to operate it.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but think of Shang Junyan. She should know this person very well, but she didn't want to see him again.

Every time I meet him, I am so angry that I wish I could draw a sword.

However, now that the prince had taken over the Yan Yin case, Su Xinyi did not want to be cut off by the queen and handed over to Prince Rong again. After much deliberation, she decided to meet Shang Junyan in the name of her eldest brother.

I don’t know if Shang Junyan will see him.

After all, the relationship between the two was too complicated. When they first came back, they wanted to kill each other. But now that they are not husband and wife, and their families are still alive and well, this is very frustrating.

Have a grudge?

Yes, there is still a life-and-death feud!

But are people alive?

Living, it is embarrassing to take revenge or not to take revenge.

Report it, your loved ones are still alive.

Don't take revenge, after all, it is true to die once.

This is difficult to do.

In particular, the two of them are still in hostile camps. If they don't have a life-and-death hatred, they are still rivals.

When Su Xinyi was wondering whether Shang Junyan would see her, Shang Junyan's reply arrived.

Su Xinyi looked at him and agreed, feeling quite complicated.

But regardless of whether it was complicated or not, she changed her clothes, asked the girl to keep it a secret for her, and quietly took Zhanqiao out of the house.

This time Shang Junyan asked Su Xinyi to meet at the Qinglu Tavern. This was the first time she had heard of this place, so luckily she wrote down the specific address in the post.

After arriving, I looked at the Qinglu Tavern with a simple and small facade. There were not many customers. It was hidden deep in the long alley of Qingjinfang. Not even regular customers knew about it. It was quite secretive.

Su Xinyi pushed the door open and was greeted by a waiter. Su Xinyi reported Shang Junyan's name and was led into the back room, where Shang Junyan was waiting for her.

After not seeing each other for a few days, major changes had taken place in the Yan Yin case. Shang Junyan's expression when he looked at Su Xinyi was really hard to describe.

Su Xinyi was so confused by his eyes that she asked Zhan Qiao to guard outside. She closed the door and looked at him and asked, "What's that look in your eyes?"

Shang Junyan was internally hurt by this sentence and said angrily: "You are really good!"

Su Xinyi:......

If she hadn't asked him for help, how could she have been so angry?

Shang Junyan's thoughts kept jumping with the development of the Yan Yin case in the past few days. The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became. Who would have thought that a case that would be revealed a few years later would be so disrupted by Su Xinyi that it would be so many years in advance? appeared in front of everyone.

"I invite you to come because I have something to ask for advice." Su Xinyi decided to be polite first and then fight. After all, she was the one asking for help.

Shang Junyan is very frustrated now. Both of them are people who have started over. Su Xinyi is living a wonderful and proud life, but on the contrary, he is walking alone like an old man.

Shang Junyan cheered up, "You want to ask me about the details of the Yanyin case?"

Su Xinyi was silent for a moment. Shang Junyan was annoying at this point, but he was very smart when it came to business matters.

She did not deny it, but directly nodded and admitted, "Yes, you have also seen that Qin Guogong has been dragged into the water. The people behind this are obviously powerful. If they are not eradicated as soon as possible, I don't know how many people will suffer. The people are forced to pay high prices. Salt, shouldn’t these salt merchants exploit the people and be punished by law?”

Shang Junyan looked at Su Xinyi intently and said subconsciously: "I never knew you were such a righteous person."

Su Xinyi lowered her eyes slightly, "There are many things you don't know. I was originally a village girl in the countryside. I know how hard the people live. How could a rich young man like you see the little money the people spend buying salt flowers? , in your eyes, that little money is not enough for a drink."

Shang Junyan was silent for a while before saying, "What do you want to know?"

"I have some news here, and I have some tickets that Ma Rude kept privately. I want to know where these things come from, or what he is going to do with them."

Shang Junyan was stunned, "Can you show it to me?"

Su Xinyi looked at Shang Junyan's surprised look, thought about it, and gave him half of it.

After taking it, Shang Junyan quickly looked through it, the expression on his face kept changing. Then he looked up at Su Xinyi and asked, "Is there any more?"

"Yes." Su Xinyi vaguely felt that something was not right, so she handed over the rest, "Take a look."

Shang Junyan took it and spread the things on the table. When Su Xinyi saw it, he immediately moved the tea cup on the table to make room for him.

Shang Junyan arranged the pieces of paper according to year. In his previous life, he had searched Ma Rude's private house and couldn't find anything. Now it appeared in front of him, like a dream.

"This evidence is crucial. It is one of the evidences that Ma Rude bribed officials. The retained papers are the life-saving charms he left for himself." Shang Junyan's thoughts quickly caught up with the case of his previous life.

Su Xinyi was confused and didn't understand what he was saying. After all, she knew only a little about the Yan Yin case. After hearing this, she thought about it and said, "Is it something you lacked when you went south?"

Shang Junyan nodded. After nodding, he looked at Su Xinyi in surprise. He didn't expect that she could guess this.

Su Xinyi did not pay attention to Shang Junyan's surprised look. He stared at the things on the table and followed the order in which Shang Junyan arranged them. "These are things from seven years ago to last year. There is nothing from this year."

"This year's Ma Rude probably hasn't had time to send it to the capital yet, and these are only part of them you have, and there are others that you haven't gotten yet." Shang Junyan said with half-squinted eyes.

"What's going on?" Su Xinyi asked anxiously.

Shang Junyan said: "Now Liangjiang Salt Administration is Li Ji, Concubine Li's brother, and his father is the Grand Master Li Shizhang, who ranks among the three princes. Liangjiang Salt Administration is a fat job, and Concubine Li asked your Majesty to find this job for her younger brother. "

Su Xinyi looked surprised when she heard this. She didn't expect that there was such a deep background here. Concubine Li was very favored. She gave birth to the ninth prince Yan Yuanzuo and was granted the title of King Xiang.

"Then what?" Su Xinyi couldn't help but ask.

Shang Junyan glanced at her, took a breath, and then continued: "Li Ji is greedy. During his tenure, he used various excuses to extort salt merchants. He especially likes to treat guests to dinner. He will hold large banquets on all major festivals of the year. The salt merchants had to pay "filial piety". Moreover, he especially liked to visit the salt merchants. Whenever there were calligraphy, paintings, ancient books and antiques that he liked, he would look at them more and the salt merchants would deliver them to his house the next day. He is backed by Concubine Li and is very arrogant in Liangjiang. Due to his status, no one dares to impeach him, which in turn fuels his arrogance. "

Su Xinyi:......

Very arrogant indeed.

"A few years later, Li Ji was transferred back to the capital. The Yanzheng Wu Dui who took over found that the account books were full of holes, and he couldn't fill such a big hole. He was afraid that he would take the blame and sue Li Ji with a memorial. Being stabbed open."

Su Xinyi looked at these things on the table, "Are these the evidence that Ma Rude left behind to bribe Li Ji?"

Shang Junyan nodded, "It's part of it."

Su Xinyi knew the importance of these things, so he stretched out his hand to put them away, looked at Shang Junyan and said, "So is Liangjiang Salt Policy or Li Ji now?"

Shang Junyan nodded.

Su Xinyi understands, that is to say, Li Ji is still in office now, and the prince is afraid of difficulties if he wants to investigate him. They colluded with officials and businessmen, and the salt merchants are tied to Li Ji. They will definitely not betray Li Ji. Because of bribing officials, salt merchants will not betray Li Ji. Businessmen must bear their responsibilities.

It was very difficult for the prince to pry open the door.

Behind Li Ji stood Concubine Li and Taishi Li, and Ma Rude was also involved in the Dongli Palace. This network was deep and wide.

Su Xinyi looked at Shang Junyan and couldn't help but said: "Such a great achievement, and you have previous experience, so you didn't inform King Rong?"

After listening to Su Xinyi's words, Shang Junyan looked up at her, "Does this sound like you are mocking me?"

"No need to look like it, just." Su Xinyi said simply.

Shang Junyan looked at Su Xinyi's serious look and remained silent for a long time before saying, "I have no intention of being loyal to anyone in my life. I just want to live out my remaining life well."

Su Xinyi sneered, "You think, I'm afraid you can't make the decision. How can such a motivated person as Princess Pingjing allow you to degenerate like this?"

Shang Junyan was speechless. He knew that what Su Xinyi said was right, "Of course I have a way."

Su Xinyi also fell silent. She stood up and looked at the other party, "Thank you for telling me this. We said last time that we have let go of the past and the grudges have been cleared. As long as you are not loyal to King Rong, I wish you a bright future. After all, You are not very good as a husband, but you are still somewhat honest when you are an official."

Shang Junyan couldn't laugh or cry, "Have you really reconciled with me?"

"So be it." Su Xinyi lowered his head and said, "After all, the mistakes of the past have been corrected, and everyone in the family is still fine. You don't have to marry a wife you don't like, and I don't have to marry an indifferent husband. There is no grudge, then Everyone be well."

When Shang Junyan heard these words, he felt a little unspeakable, and stared at Su Xinyi, "Are you really going to stand on the prince's boat and not get off? Just because the prince said a few words for you? Such kindness is worth it. How do you repay this?"

Su Xinyi's eyes that were still smiling before suddenly turned cold. She stared at Shang Junyan and sneered: "A few words? Shang Junyan, I think you are not very clear about your mother's viciousness. Every time she takes me Entering the palace not only humiliates me, but in order to show her loyalty in front of the queen and show her love and respect for Yan Qiongsi, her future daughter-in-law, she will always find various excuses to belittle me in front of the queen, and will also find various opportunities to keep me in the palace. Queen Bo is happy when she is punished.”

Speaking of this, the fire in Su Xinyi's eyes rose slightly, "I remember one time, I got lost in the palace, so I asked a chamberlain for directions. Do you know what your mother said when she found out?"

Shang Junyan was a little afraid to answer Su Xinyi's expression.

Su Xinyi glanced at him and the sarcasm on her face became even stronger, "Your mother scolded me, Sichun, for not even sparing a eunuch!"

Shang Junyan's face turned pale and his body swayed slightly.

Su Xinyi sneered, "I've been married to you for many years, but you and I have never consummated our marriage. Is it because I don't want to fulfill my obligations as a wife? No, it's you, your mother, your grandmother, and your sister who always have various excuses to You and I are separated, your family is really disgusting to me.”

Su Xinyi's anger soared and she wished she could kick Shang Junyan out.

This person is also amazing. Every time we meet, he always has the ability to make her explode from various angles.

Su Xinyi put her things away and if she didn't leave, she would really not be able to resist a duel with Shang Junyan when she saw Shang Junyan's face!

For the sake of telling him the truth today, I endured it!

------Digression-----

I'm stuck. I wrote until midnight last night and couldn't write a few words. I got up this morning to outline the outline. I'm a little late. Sorry for the delay. My little cuties, please give me a monthly pass by the way. I love you!
