Qianqianjie, kidnap a reborn prince back to the modern era
Chapter 59 Auction (1)
As night fell, two graceful figures, one white and one black, flew out from Yingyue Residence and quickly flew towards Qianmai Palace.
Qianmai Palace.
The auction, which is held every ten days, is always crowded with people.
The dignitaries filed in and filled the lobby on the first floor and the private rooms upstairs. Everyone was proud to have a ticket to the Qianmai Palace auction.
"I heard that there will be a lot of elixirs auctioned today. It's a rare thing that there are elixirs in two consecutive auctions."
"Yes, everyone said that the Little Medical Fairy came to Dongcang Country and recently arrived in Kyoto. Maybe that's the reason."
"I'm here for the elixirs too. I heard there are many kinds of elixirs today, including marrow cleansing elixirs, tendon strengthening elixirs, etc."
"The last time the medicine war was going on, we on the first floor could only watch the excitement."
Behind the curtain of a private room on the second floor, Yun Wanqing was looking around with a nervous look on her face.
This is my second time coming to Qianmai Palace, and I’m no longer as excited as I was the first time.
The tickets for the Qianmai Palace auction were too expensive and hard to buy. My mother had to ask the servant to queue up all night before she managed to get a ticket for a private room on the second floor, paying two hundred taels of silver for nothing.
"It won't start until after the evening, so please sit down first."
Mrs. Li had been disappointed once, and this time she was even more nervous.
"Butler, have you found out clearly? Will there be the Illusion Heart Pill today?"
"Madam, I don't know what kind of elixirs there are yet, but I heard that there will be many kinds of elixirs this time."
"Oh no! What should I do if I don't have the Illusion Heart Pill anymore? The wedding is almost here."
Li was depressed. These days, she couldn't eat or sleep well and was always haunted by nightmares.
"Mother, if there is a Huanxin Pill, what if we can't get it?"
Yun Wanqing was even more nervous. She had experienced an auction once before. Her heart was almost in her throat that day. Listening to the bidding sounds coming one after another, all that money was in the form of silver.
"Miss, don't worry. We brought 100,000 taels of silver notes. According to the price of elixirs in the past, the maximum price we can get is estimated to be 50,000 taels."
"That's good. If there is a Huanxin Pill today, we must get it."
Li was still frightened.
One hundred thousand taels of silver notes were all the cash that the Prime Minister's Mansion had available now. She had asked the butler to bring it out without telling the master. When she returned later, she had not figured out how to face the master's questioning.
In the hall of eternal splendor, the aroma of tea is wafting in the air.
"Qian You, it's been three months since we last met. You must have missed me so much."
Qin Hongye was like a fragrant breeze, floating over when Yun Qianyou pushed the door open, and gently wrapped around her body.
"Sister Qin, let go. You rub Qianyou like this every time we meet. I'm impressed by you."
Qiao Nan rudely grabbed Qin Hongye's arm and pulled it off, but his own neck was entangled by her and the two of them started fighting.
Qin Hongye is the person in charge of the music troupe. All the singing and dancing training in the restaurant is arranged by her. She is now actually in charge of the Tianyi Restaurant. She is extremely busy every day and has no time to see Yun Qianyou.
She grew up in Anxi Town. When she was fifteen, her parents sold her to a landowner in his forties as a concubine. That night, she was tortured by the perverted man until she fainted.
Seeing that the little girl, who looked like a tattered rag doll, had died, the landlord had her thrown into a mass grave.
She woke up from her coma in a cold wind and rain.
Seeing her situation, she mustered up her last bit of strength, walked towards the dense forest on the mountain, found a crooked tree, and hoisted herself up with great effort.
When he woke up again, he saw two girls around ten years old, Yun Qianyou and Qiao Nan.
They went down the mountain together, and when they returned they saw the woman who had hanged herself. They rescued her, brought her to Yumai Mountain, and gave her a new life from then on.
"It's almost time, Sister Hongye, you should get off the stage and get ready."
Qiao Mu put down his teacup and looked at the two people fighting. He was already used to it.
"Grasp the task today and take the 100,000 taels of silver from the Prime Minister's wife without losing a cent."
Qiao Nan pushed Qin Hongye out the door and reminded her.
"Hold it!"
Qin Hongye blinked her charming eyes at Qiao Nan, and then blew away like a gust of fragrant wind.
"One hundred thousand taels is the maximum amount that the head of the Li family can use. We will collect some interest first this time."
Qiao Nan lay on the roof of Jinghua Pavilion for several days, listening to the calculations of Li's mother and daughter and their vicious curses. If she had not followed Yun Qianyou's wishes and let them taste the bitter wine they brewed before dying, she would have wanted to go down and beat them to death every time.
"The restaurant and clinic are now on track, and we can prepare for the book club next."
"Doctor Zhou from the clinic has come to see patients at Prince Sheng's mansion, which is considered breaking the rule of not seeing patients. From now on, we will announce that when seeing patients at Xinglin Clinic, in addition to the consultation fee, you must also give a token of gratitude. We will respond to your requests in the future."
Yun Qianyou held the exquisite white jade teacup, sipped the mellow fragrant tea, and looked at Qiao Mu.
"There are three camps in Dongcang Country right now: the Prince's Party, Prince Ning, and Prince Sheng. Should we make some distinctions when selecting patients?"
"Need not."
"Their struggle for power in the court is different from ours. We only want to use this opportunity to gather strength and bring down the Prime Minister's Mansion in one fell swoop. Who takes the throne has nothing to do with us."
"Okay, I'll arrange it."
"Yin Jie sent a message that the Xiling marriage team has already set out and is expected to arrive in Kyoto in about half a month. However, there are some problems along the way. We don't know who is trying to stop the marriage yet."
"It was agreed that she would be given to the old emperor as a concubine. The princes should not have thought of marrying her. This should not be Dongcang's problem."
"Okay, I'll notify Yin Jie and focus on going to Xiling to find the cause."
"Have the people sent to Beiyan made any progress in investigating the Dongbohou Mansion's betrayal of Beiyan?"
It has been a few months since he came to Kyoto. The extermination of the Dong Bohou Mansion fifteen years ago is like a taboo topic here. Everyone is terrified when talking about it. Yun Qianyou had no choice but to send people to the other country to continue searching for suspicious points.
"I heard that there are some clues, and Yin Jie is planning to go to Beiyan Country to investigate in person."
"Okay, let's go and inform him. This is a big deal for Master. I expect it to be more difficult than overthrowing Prime Minister Yun's mansion."
Yun Qianyou was in deep thought. Whenever she mentioned the Duke of Dongbo's Mansion, her heart always felt uneasy. Perhaps she felt the same way as her master.
"Master has gone to Nanqi now to start building the Qianmai Palace there. I heard that Nanqi is in civil strife, the crown prince is missing, and the Ninth Prince is in control of the government, and is about to sideline the old emperor."
Qiao Mu told the news he had received from the four countries.
Qianmai Palace intends to expand its influence in the martial arts world and has layouts in the four countries, with Dongcang being the most powerful.
"The only thing missing from the preparations for the establishment of the Qianmai Palace branches in the four countries is Beiyan. For some reason, I always feel that our in-depth understanding of Beiyan is a little weak."
Qian You looked through the intelligence Yin Jie had collected recently and said thoughtfully.
"Master is preparing external forces, and we are stepping up our investigation internally to find out the truth about the extermination of Master's family as soon as possible. No matter how powerful the forces behind it are, we must avenge Master."
"Yes, this is a task we must complete even at the cost of our lives."
Qiao Mu had already tied his life and property together with Qian You, not just to repay the favor of Valerian back then. They had grown up together over the years, and she had already occupied his heart.
But I never dared to say it out loud.
