Rebirth of the Merchant Woman's Revenge

How could Yipinxiang, such a big shop, end up like this?

Moreover, as the shopkeeper of Yipinxiang, she actually had many opinions about Gu Qiongsi's business ideas. Zhongpinxiang had made a lot of money at that time, but she invested all of it to buy high-quality spices regardless of the consequences.

All the silver was spent on spices, otherwise things wouldn't have ended up like that.

However, even though he had opinions, now, seeing Li Junze's attitude towards Gu Qiongsi, he found his place again.

In the future, I will go to Gu Qiongsi every now and then to help the two of them pass on some messages. In this way, who knows, they may be able to open a shop in the future and continue to be the shopkeeper.

In the imperial study, the emperor angrily pushed all the memorials on the desk to the ground, unable to suppress his anger.

"Your Majesty, please calm down." Eunuch Chengping could only comfort the emperor in this way.

They had just returned from Concubine Hui's palace. Concubine Hui had fainted several times and had just calmed down.

"Why, why did this happen? Wasn't it said that Concubine Hui's pregnancy was stable? How come she miscarried after just one night?"

The emperor roared angrily, and the whole hall was filled with his anger.

"Your Majesty, please take care of yourself." Eunuch Chengping asked the eunuch to pick up the memorials that had fallen on the ground, and then knelt beside the emperor to ask him to calm down.

How could he answer these questions? Even the imperial doctors in the palace could not find the cause of the miscarriage.

"Someone must have tampered with this matter. Investigate it thoroughly for me. Make sure to find out who dared to tamper with my offspring." The emperor ordered Eunuch Chengping.

Eunuch Cheng Ping nodded repeatedly after hearing this, and then replied in a low voice, "Yes, Your Majesty, I will ask the people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs to investigate it thoroughly."

After Eunuch Chengping finished speaking, he hurried out to arrange for someone to pass on the message, while he looked in the direction of Concubine Hui's palace with lingering fear. Even Concubine Hui herself didn't know how she didn't have a child, so what could the Ministry of Internal Affairs find out? Oh...

These well-informed people inside and outside the palace all felt a vague atmosphere of impending storm. Some of those who had been hesitant and had not yet chosen a team began to panic, worrying that they would become scapegoats for someone else because they had no camp.

Naturally, Wang Zhuo was the first to know the news, and he did much better than he expected. He leisurely drank hot tea in the Bachelor's Mansion.

Sun Xingzhi came here today on Li Junze's orders to gather information. Seeing Wang Zhuo's relaxed expression, he basically knew the general situation of the matter.

"How should Zhier respond to His Highness?" Sun Xingzhi had to ask Wang Zhuo for his opinion.

In order to avoid attracting attention, Wang Zhuo strictly forbade Li Junze to leave the house, so now only Sun Xingzhi could pass messages back and forth.

Wang Zhuo placed the teacup on the table, and after a moment of hesitation, he said, "Tell him to keep calm and pretend he doesn't know about this. If he is in the mood, let him continue copying the Diamond Sutra."

Sun Xingzhi asked in confusion, "Father, His Highness can't keep going like this. He needs to accumulate prestige so that he can have enough officials to support him."

Sun Xingzhi's concerns are not unreasonable. Given Li Junze's current situation, even if it really comes to a critical moment, it will be difficult to accomplish anything without his support.

"Zhi'er, you are right. Ze'er is still a child at heart and has a hot temper. If he wants to accumulate prestige, one thing is enough. Now we just need to temper his temper."

After saying this, Sun Xingzhi had roughly guessed Wang Zhuo's plan, but Wang Zhuo grabbed Sun Xingzhi's hand, patted it gently on the back of his hand, and said with emotion,

"If he was half as calm as you, I wouldn't have to worry so much. You should stay by his side and give him some advice, okay?"

Sun Xingzhi nodded repeatedly, "Father, don't worry, I know what's going on."

Sun Xingzhi has always been a calm and steady person in front of Wang Zhuo, except for the last incident with Deputy General Niu in Prince An's Mansion. After being disturbed by Deputy General Niu, he seemed to be rash.

With a "bang", the door was pushed open from the outside, and Wang Yucheng rushed in from outside without even notifying anyone.

After coming in, he couldn't wait to say something, but he saw Wang Zhuo holding Sun Xingzhi's hand and saying something.

When the two saw him come in, they panicked and let go of their clenched hands.

"Oh, father...father, do you have anything to talk about?" Wang Yucheng asked quickly.

"Tsk, Cheng'er, where have you learned all these years of education? What's so urgent that you even forgot to report it?" Wang Zhuo scolded him unhappily.

"Well, father, something big happened in the palace, don't you know about it?" Wang Yucheng asked nervously.

Wang Zhuo thought he was going to talk about Concubine Hui's loss of her child, so he pretended not to know and asked, "What happened? Tell me slowly."

"Yes, the Ministry of Internal Affairs is now searching every palace, saying that they are looking for items that caused Concubine Hui to miscarry."

The reason why Wang Yucheng rushed back was that he was worried that something might have happened to his sister.

"There shouldn't be any problem with my sister's Yuchen Palace, right?"

He added worriedly.

Wang Zhuo knew that Wang Yucheng had loved his younger sister very much since childhood, and he would think of his younger sister Wang Yuyan first whenever something good happened.

However, he himself had no idea about this matter. He did not expect that the Ministry of Internal Affairs would make such a big fuss.

After all, they acted cautiously enough in the matter of Concubine Hui, and there would definitely not be any handle left.

However, he really couldn't guarantee whether anything would happen in Wang Yuyan's Yuchen Palace.

"Who told you this?" Wang Zhuo asked with a frown.

"Oh, some of my colleagues are well-informed and have already known about it." Wang Yucheng was on duty today and heard his colleagues talking about it, so he rushed back in a hurry.

"Oh, then it seems to be true. You go and do your work, I will make my own arrangements." After Wang Zhuo confirmed the source of the information, he urged Wang Yucheng to leave.

Wang Yucheng wanted to say something else, but after looking at Sun Xingzhi standing next to his father, he chose to shut up and left.

In his mind, he was still thinking about the scene he saw when he entered the room just now. What was going on? Why did the two of them look so close?

However, he was not a person who worried much. He could not think of the reason for this matter for a while, so he stopped thinking about it and simply put it out of his mind. He continued to care about the situation in Yuchen Palace.
