The reborn daughter of the Marquis Mansion takes over the world

Returning to the city in the afternoon, Ning Ziqing made a special trip to the embroidery workshop to check on the progress of the new embroiderers.

The shopkeeper told her that there were many people coming to apply for jobs every day, and she had already selected a group of candidates.

Ning Ziqing will decide whether to hire them after personal assessment.

Since this time the embroiderers needed to be trained to learn double-sided embroidery skills, Ning Ziqing's requirements were extremely strict.

After a busy selection for most of the day, only one suitable candidate was finally selected among the ten embroiderers.

Ning Ziqing gave the embroiderer a few words and ordered the shopkeeper to take her to sign the employment contract.

Afterwards, he hurried to Sifanglou to meet with business representatives from Kyoto.

Previously, Jiang Quhan had given her full authority over Yebei's trade matters.

The opening of this trade route will bring great benefits to both countries.

The Fu family already occupies a dominant position on this business road, but they do not want to enjoy these benefits alone, so they decided to enter into cooperative relationships with other trading houses.

When Ning Ziqing arrived at the private room on the second floor, Uncle Fu and Fu Yuyan were chatting enthusiastically with some business representatives.

When they saw Ning Ziqing coming, they immediately stood up and saluted.

"See Princess A Zhao!"

Ning Ziqing nodded slightly to signal them to excuse themselves. After Fu Yuyan welcomed her to sit down, he began to introduce the representatives of the business houses present.

Ning Ziqing had already had contact with several of them before.

However, when she saw that the shopkeeper of Zhenbao Pavilion was also present, she couldn't help but be a little surprised.

Ning Ziqing looked at him carefully.

It was a young man wearing a large-sleeved coat with silver brocade and rattan patterns. His face was like a crown jewel, and there was a sharp light in his deep eyes.

He holds a jade bone fan and sits by the window with an elegant temperament.

Meeting Ning Ziqing's gaze, he curved his lips and smiled.

"It's a real honor to be invited to meet Princess A Zhao next Jiyang."

Ning Ziqing frowned slightly, remembering that he had been rejected many times before, and she was inevitably a little unhappy.

She asked angrily: "Why is Boss Ji willing to deal with this princess this time?"

Ji Yang smiled calmly: "Princess Azhao is famous, how can I not know what is good and what is bad? I came here this time because I want to borrow the princess's light to make a fortune."

Ning Ziqing said straightforwardly: "Why don't you sell the Treasure Pavilion to me? From now on, let alone make a fortune, you can earn gold and silver!"

Ji Yang declined politely: "I can't decide this matter, I need the consent of our boss!"

Ning Ziqing looked slightly displeased: "Why didn't your boss come today? Is he afraid that I would steal his Treasure Pavilion?"

Ji Yang paused and explained: "My boss has something urgent to do today, so he didn't come. He said he would meet Princess A Zhao if we were destined!"

Ning Ziqing's face darkened, obviously dissatisfied.

The atmosphere in the hall became a little awkward for a while.

Fu Yuyan saw that Ning Ziqing was angry, so he raised his glass and stepped in to calm the atmosphere.

"Everyone, let's start with a glass of wine to Princess Azhao. From now on, we will use the princess's prestige to open up this hard-won trade route!"

Others responded one after another and raised their glasses to thank Ning Ziqing.

"Thank you Princess Azhao for taking care of me, I'm very grateful!"

Ning Ziqing calmed down her emotions and drank a glass of wine generously, but Yaoyao did not allow her to drink a second glass.

After having several delicious dishes and discussing important matters, Ning Ziqing asked Uncle Fu and the two of them to go socialize while he took Yaoyao and left first.

The two walked out of the Sifang Building, and the sky was getting dark.

Yaoyao helped her get into the carriage. Seeing her tired face, she couldn't help scolding her: "You are a princess now. You can just ask someone to do these tedious things. Why do you have to do it yourself!"

Ning Ziqing pinched her nose: "In these troubled times, I must first help my uncle and the others gain a foothold. When my sister-in-law gets married, I will leave these in her hands so that she can relax!"

"This way I can free up my hands and devote myself to helping His Highness the Fourth Prince seize the throne."

Yaoyao sighed helplessly: "I think you just can't take any time off and worry about it all day long!"

Ning Ziqing joked: "What can I do? This family has to rely on me!"

Yaoyao was amused by her, put her arm around her shoulders, and suggested, "It's too early to go back now. You've had a hard day, why don't we go have some fun and relax?"

Ning Ziqing leaned on her shoulder and fell asleep.

"I'm too tired and don't want to have fun. I want to go back and lie down and rest."

Yaoyao hates that iron is not made of steel: "You have no future! You are not married yet, so you can do whatever you want. When you marry His Highness the Fourth Prince, you will not be able to enjoy anything in that palace with many rules."

When Ning Ziqing heard this, he immediately became energetic.

"It makes sense!"

"Tell me, where are we going to have fun?"

Yaoyao was so excited that she shouted to Yuanli who was driving the carriage: "Change the route to Jinhuan Tower!"

Yuanli frowned.

This place doesn't sound very serious!

After half a stick of incense.

The carriage stopped in front of the informal Jinhuan Building.

Ning Ziqing, who had changed into men's clothing, was forcefully dragged in by Yaoyao.

As soon as they entered the door, several women with quite scantily attired and voluptuous looks immediately gathered around them, posing and teasing them in various ways.

"Hey, gentlemen, is this your first time here? Do you want us to accompany you?"

Ning Ziqing couldn't resist and avoided them resistingly, staring at Yaoyao angrily.

Yaoyao calmly pushed away the women, called the madam and said, "Give us brothers a room to go to, and call some beautiful young ladies to come and take care of them."

After that, he threw a few round and plump pearls to the madam.

"This is a reward for you!"

Seeing her generosity, the madam's eyes immediately lit up, and she walked upstairs toward the two of them with a face full of joy.

Ning Ziqing scolded Yaoyao worriedly: "You said you were looking for fun, but you actually took me to visit a brothel. If word spreads, will I lose face?"

The thought of a dignified princess visiting a brothel is very exciting.

Yaoyao comforted her calmly: "Don't worry, no one saw us coming in. What are you afraid of? Besides, I have already threatened Yuanli and asked her to keep it secret."

The two were led into a room with extremely fragrant decoration.

After a while, the madam came in with five or six delicate and beautiful women and gave instructions.

"You are so happy to serve these two young masters and make them comfortable. They will be rewarded heavily."

As soon as the words fell, the women picked up the food and wine and threw themselves at the two of them enthusiastically.

Ning Ziqing was startled.

"I'm not ready yet!"

Yaoyao hugged a woman with exposed shoulders and teased: "If you have anything to prepare, you can have what they have too!"

Ning Ziqing: "..."

Inside Dali Temple.

Huo Yunjue's face was gloomy, and he looked at the messy prison and asked Gu Liaohe.

"What are the casualties?"

Gu Liaohe replied in a deep voice: "Four of our jailers were killed by fire and thunder, and the assassin was the last one left alive, but his injuries are too serious and I'm afraid he won't last long."

Huo Yunjue turned his eyes to Jiang Quhan, who was leaning against the wall, and spoke in a serious tone.

"Jiang Quhan, this case is complicated and I can't close it yet. I'll give you a clear explanation. If you have any ideas, feel free to put them forward!"

Jiang Quhan kept staring at Gu Liaohe, whose hair was singed by the fire and thunder, and smiled from ear to ear.

"Wait a moment, let me take a moment."

Gu Liaohe was so angry that he shouted angrily at him: "Can you stop laughing? It's not all your fault!"

Jiang Quhan's face fell and he retorted: "What does it have to do with me? You didn't watch the cell yourself, why are you blaming me!"

Gu Liaohe angrily took out the bottle of poison and threw it to him.

"If it hadn't been for your weird drug that knocked out all of us, how could the assassin have succeeded!"

Jiang Quhan was stunned for a moment, looked at the empty medicine bottle, and exclaimed: "Did you use the entire bottle of 'Heartthrob' at once?"

Huo Yunjue asked him in confusion: "What do you mean?"

Jiang Quhan was a little embarrassed: "I forgot to tell Gu Liaohe the correct dosage of heartthrob..."

Gu Liaohe glared at him fiercely and almost punched him.

Damn weirdo, can you get away!

Huo Yunjue pointed at Jiang Quhan angrily: "You ask me to tell you what you are good at. If you don't succeed enough, you will fail more than you can!"

After that, he stepped forward and pushed him out hard.

Jiang Quhan knew he was in the wrong and said apologetically: "I was negligent. I thought Gu Liaohe, a fool like me, wouldn't use my poison."

Gu Liaohe kicked him from behind angrily and quickly passed him.

Jiang Quhan held on to the wall and shouted at the backs of the two of them: "I am also responsible for this matter. I will not pursue the results for the time being and leave it to you to investigate slowly!"

The two of them didn't respond to him, so Jiang Quhan hurriedly chased after him.

The three of them continued to argue at the entrance of Dali Temple for a few words, and finally parted on bad terms.

When parting, when Jiang Quhan got on the carriage first, Gu Liaohe called Huo Yunjue aside and whispered: "Your Majesty, Fourth Highness, about the prison robbery last night, I thought someone was secretly colluding, working together inside and outside, to kill the assassin in the prison. Silence them all."

Huo Yunjue asked curiously: "What did you find?"

Gu Liaohe approached him: "After the assassin was stabbed by his accomplice, I fed him a life-threatening pill given by Jiang Quhan. Perhaps out of gratitude, he said a word to me."

"What word?"

Gu Liaohe slowly spit out one word.

"palace!"

Huo Yunjue's face changed slightly, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

"Could it be that the assassin wanted to hint that the mastermind behind the scenes was in the palace?"

Gu Liaohe did not dare to jump to conclusions.

"I think we should follow this clue to continue investigating!"

Huo Yunjue pondered for a moment and disagreed: "Let's put this matter aside for now. Now something happened in the East Palace, we can't act rashly, otherwise we will alert the enemy!"

Gu Liaohe also understood the seriousness of the situation, so he could only give up for the time being, salute Huo Yunjue, say goodbye and return home.

After he left, Jiang Quhan invited Huo Yunjue to ride back in the carriage.

Huo Yunjue flatly refused and got on the horse brought by Wei Feng.

Soon, when they passed the alley near Jinhuan Tower, Wei Feng asked strangely: "Isn't that the Fu Mansion's carriage? Why did it stop here?"

Huo Yunjue looked in the direction of his finger and recognized Yuanli sitting on the shaft of the car.

He was a little strange, so he stopped Jiang Quhan's carriage and asked him to go over to check it out.

When Yuan Li saw Huo Yunjue and Jiang Quhan appearing in front of him at the same time, he was shocked.

I wish I could bury myself on the spot!
