My beloved wife is reborn, let's get divorced, Mr. Prime Minister

She doesn't want to give up this step!

she continued.

"Although our grandfather has passed away, how can we, his descendants, be so ignorant of the rules? If he knew that we, his descendants, did not respect him, he would be restless in the underworld and come to find us in the middle of the night."

Song Qingcheng spoke in a serious tone and made it clear that the five thousand taels of silver were not what she wanted, but were for the peace of her ancestors.

When Song Qingcheng accurately told the amount of money in the public account, Grandma Wang Zhirou was very shocked. She even suspected that she had arranged her own people under her. But after thinking about it, she felt that it was unlikely. Song Qing had just entered the mansion not long ago, and it was impossible for her to contact the old people in the public account, and no new faces had appeared in the public account.

How did she know that? Grandma Wang Zhirou was extremely shocked. She wondered if her little movements had been discovered. When she thought of this, beads of sweat instantly formed on her forehead, and she became even more panicked.

Could it be that Shen Tanxiang said that? But she looked at Shen Tanxiang again. Shen Tanxiang was a useless person who couldn't understand the account book at all, let alone pass on the message to Song Qingcheng. However, the more uncertain the matter was, the more afraid she felt.

She looked at Song Qingcheng, as if she was just stating what she knew. She couldn't pester him any longer. She would lose more than she gained. Five thousand taels was five thousand taels.

Wang Zhirou choked for a moment, then burst into laughter. "Look at my brain. I completely forgot such an important thing. My second brother's wife didn't even remind me."

Shen Tanxiang was looking at Wang Zhirou, whose expression changed so quickly, and was completely confused. She didn't know why she changed her mind so quickly, and in the end she even started to resent her.

Without waiting for Shen Tanxiang to speak, in order to avoid complications, Wang Zhirou continued, "I'll think about it carefully when I get back. I think I can prepare the five thousand taels and send it to you tomorrow."

"Sister-in-law is in charge of such a large Duke's Mansion, so she doesn't have the energy to take care of everything. Sister-in-law, please don't take it to heart."

Song Qingcheng knew that her goal had been achieved, so she naturally stopped holding on to it. Anyway, her goal was not to overthrow Wang Zhirou. If Wang Zhirou stepped down, Shen Tanxiang knew nothing, so wouldn't the worry fall on her again? Managing housework, although it did not require any technical skills, was extremely tedious and complicated, and it wasted invisible energy.

Besides, Wang Zhirou is just seeking some personal gain and she can’t cause any big trouble.

In the study, Pei Huaizhi, who had excellent bone structure, had a small sachet lying in his hand.

"She showed this herself?"

"Oh, Third Master, you're overthinking this. It wasn't performed by Madam herself."

Pei Huaizhi didn't finish listening. He threw the thing he had treasured to the side and continued to look at the memorial in his hand.

"It's just that the madam said that she went to Wanzhao Temple to pray for you personally, Third Master, and said that it would keep you safe, and it worked."

Shuqi emphasized the word "personally", as if he was afraid that he couldn't hear it.

Pei Huaizhi's eyes flashed, and he returned to his calm and cold look, "Okay, got it, go out", and in the end he did not pick up the sachet thrown in the corner.

Wait for Shuqi to go out and close the door.

He was about to pick up the sachet, but before he could move, the door was opened again from the outside. Shuqi poked his head in and said, "Third Master, don't be embarrassed. It's nothing for a man to carry a sachet."

Pei Huaizhi turned his hand, which was about to take the sachet, picked up the note at hand and threw it out, with a twitch of his lips.

"roll!"

"Bang", the door was suddenly closed, and he took the sachet back into his hand. His beautiful eyes narrowed slightly. On the outside of the sachet was embroidered a pair of boy and girl dolls, which were chubby and very cute.

But even the learned Pei Huazhi couldn't figure it out. The amulets in the temple in the capital had new styles. They were all replaced with New Year's painted dolls. But Pei Huazhi couldn't help but feel that there was something fishy. After all, he found that Song Qingcheng liked acting the most. He could tell at a glance whether she was sincere at that time or false at that time.

I will be leaving Beijing for my new post soon, and there is only one day left.

Song Qingcheng was about to leave the capital, so she specially went back to the General's Mansion. Mrs. Song was afraid that her daughter would get into trouble, so she repeatedly asked her to listen to Pei Huaizhi, and Song Qingcheng naturally agreed to everything.

After leaving the general's mansion, I went to Wang Shuyi's place. Seeing that Wang Shuyi was living a leisurely and happy life, I also relaxed.

There was only one day left, and Song Qingcheng was busy as a whirlwind.

At the Longmen Escort Agency in Tongzhou, she sent a message to Zhang Lin and Qiao Xiangyu, and also brought two thousand taels of silver, asking them to buy land at the intersection of the five rivers in Tongzhou.

At this time, Zhang Lin didn't quite understand the purpose of Song Qingcheng entrusting them to do this. The area around Tongzhou River is actually wasteland. The river has been silted up and there are basically no people. This is indeed a losing business.

However, although Zhang Lin had doubts in his heart, he still did as Song Qingcheng instructed. The silver given by Song Qingcheng was really sufficient. In fact, it was a remote place, and it was not easy to find a sucker, so the locals sold it for the silver.

Zhang Lin not only purchased a lot of land at the confluence of five rivers, but also around five rivers. This large-scale purchase of land caused quite a stir and inevitably attracted the attention of the local government. However, when they saw that the land was abandoned, they were afraid that he would go back on his word, so they hurriedly asked people to sign and seal on the spot. In less than half a day, stacks of land deeds flew into Song Qingcheng's hands like snowflakes.

At this time, Song Qingcheng was sitting in Chunjing Hall, smiling happily. Things that were worthless now would become valuable silver in the future. How could she not be happy?

Everything was ready and we were just waiting to go to Jiangnan, but something unexpected happened.

The second master Pei Huaiming used to be a minor official in the Ministry of Rites, living a leisurely life, but he was suddenly promoted to the Minister of Honglu Temple. Promotion is a good thing in itself, but the second house could not be happy at all, because of the visit of the Tatar envoy.

The Tatars have been frequently harassing the border in recent years, and have had wolfish ambitions for a long time. The Wei Dynasty, suffering from an empty treasury, has been pretending to be friendly with them, and everyone is only maintaining harmony on the surface. Now that they have come to the capital at this critical juncture, one cannot help but suspect that they have ulterior motives.

The Minister of the Honglu Temple has to mediate. If he is not careful, it will lead to hostility between the two countries. Then he, the Minister of the Honglu Temple, will be the first person to be sacrificed on the battlefield.

Pei Huaiming knew that he did not have such great ability. He had not made any contributions in all these years in the officialdom. How could he be promoted? When he thought about it carefully, he was just a pawn pushed forward by others to ward off disaster.

Shen Tanxiang, who was unaware of the importance of this, was extremely happy. The Minister of the Ministry of Rites was a fourth-rank official position, while the Third Master Pei Huaizhi's position as Langzhong of the Jiangnan Qingli Division was only a fifth-rank position. Now, she was the number one person in the Duke's Mansion. Shen Tanxiang's face was about to break with laughter.

Unexpectedly, Pei Huaiming returned to the Duke's Mansion crying and wailing.
