Chapter 200: Only the Regent does not
Mu Xiuji glanced at her with a funny look, "Tell me, do you want me to guess?"
Chen Yuntang blinked and then continued with a smile, "The New Year is coming soon, and I still have a batch of vegetables that are worried that they will not be sold!"
"I want to sell the vegetables from the Marquis' Mansion during this banquet?" Mu Xiuji asked with a raised eyebrows. I have to say that in terms of Xingjia, Chen Yuntang is probably the best one in the Yongxing Marquis' Mansion in the past few generations, but it's a pity that she is not a real man.
But then I thought about it, if she was really a man, what chance would he have?
Chen Yuntang didn't know what Mu Xiuji was thinking. When she heard Mu Xiuji's words, she nodded, "I do want to take this opportunity to promote the Houfu vegetables, but the matter needs to be done, but it can't be as high-profile as the last Jubao Pavilion banquet."
“What about the third one?”
Chen Yuntang's lips curled slightly, "If I don't say it, Brother Mu should know it, right?"
Mu Xiuji's expression suddenly became serious, "Master has any ideas?"
Chen Yuntang nodded, "Grandfather didn't tell me, this is just my guess, because I saw that several of them were grandfather's favorite students from the past, including Brother Mu's father. At that time, Mrs. Guo will come."
The Regent's eyes were spread all over Yanjing, and it was not safe anywhere. Only by taking this opportunity and discussing a constitution can the Regent be hit and usher in a possibility of being in charge of the orthodox government of Emperor Wen.
Mu Xiuji thought about it, "Actually, my father had a long time ago, but he was weak. If he could really join the league this time, it would be impossible to give the emperor a chance to breathe!"
Chen Yuntang also hopes that the Regent can suffer some setbacks. He is so arrogant and domineering all day long that people look down on him.
After delivering the invitation, Chen Yuntang sat in Mu Xiuji's room for another cup of tea before leaving.
After leaving, she went to several other censors who were familiar with the censors in the Censorate to send invitations.
Since the last time he was frustrated at the Censorate, the Regent has not disturbed Chen Yuntang these days. It has been more than a month since he calculated it.
Eunuch Wei, who served the Regent all day, felt more and more that this job could not be done.
As time goes by, the Regent's mood becomes more and more unstable, and his temper becomes worse and worse, and he becomes angry and irritable at any time, especially after reading the small notes sent by Qin Chou every evening.
Although Eunuch Wei dared not say anything, he knew what was written on the small note that Qin Chou sent on time, it was nothing more than the whereabouts of the little marquis in one day.
Look at His Highness's angry look from time to time, it must be that the little marquis has lived more and more nourishing without His Highness' interference...
It's getting late again.
The sunset slightly sets, but the outside is not warmed by such afterglow. Instead, the cold wind whistles, making the people who are rushing outside tremble.
The Regent's work efficiency is not high all day today. He sent memorials from the cabinet in the morning, and there were two stacks. At the normal speed, there should be more than a dozen copies left now, but today it is almost evening, and there are still more than a stack that has not been opened.
Eunuch Wei stood in the corner of the study like an invisible man, looking at His Highness's anxious back.
His Highness Regent suddenly threw away the red pen in his hand, his eyes deep, and then he walked out from behind the desk and walked back and forth in the study with a dark face. This action continued until Eunuch Wei felt that the carpet in the study was about to be bald by His Highness, the Regent suddenly said, "Has Qin Chou returned yet?"
Eunuch Wei's scalp was tingling by His Highness's question. If he remembered correctly, this was the fifth time His Highness asked this question.
"Your Highness, the old slave goes out to ask yourself."
The Regent waved impatiently at Eunuch Wei.
Eunuch Wei hurriedly walked out of the study room.
He breathed a sigh of relief after coming out of the study, feeling that the temperature outside was lower than that in the study.
Qin Tianhua, who was standing at the door, rolled his eyes at Eunuch Wei.
Eunuch Wei snorted, walked over and asked, "Is Qin Chou back?"
"No! His man is coming and going without a trace, how could I know?" These days, His Highness asked him to stand at the door every day to be punished, and when he saw this old eunuch following His Highness in and out, Qin Tianhua would not have a good tone to Eunuch Wei.
"Boy, this is what Your Highness asked!" Eunuch Wei wanted to hit someone angrily. If he hadn't been sure that he could not beat Qin Tianhua, the big and thick, he would have gotten it long ago.
Hearing that it was His Highness’s question, Qin Tianhua immediately cheered up, "Hmph! There was a secret whistle just now, and Qin Chou returned home in two quarters of an hour."
After learning the news, Eunuch Wei hurried into the study and replied.
On weekdays, two quarters of an hour passes quickly, as if it has arrived before we can do anything, but today these two quarters of a hour seem to be living like a year.
Eunuch Wei shrank his neck, counting the time silently in his heart, praying that Qin Chou must wait for an appointment to return home within two quarters of an hour, otherwise not only would he be unlucky, Qin Tianhua, the silly maniac, not only would he not be able to escape!
Fortunately, Qin Chou was a good job. Just after two quarters of an hour, he jumped off the eaves of the royal palace. After entering the study, he handed a small note to the Regent on time.
After reading the note, the Regent tightened his eyebrows, and then suddenly looked at Eunuch Wei, which scared Eunuch Wei so much that his legs were weak and he knelt on the ground.
The next second I heard Your Highness ask: "Go and check the invitations from the Prince's Mansion to see if there are any people from the Prince's Mansion?"
Eunuch Wei quickly took the order.
After a while, he hesitated outside the study door for a long time after knowing the result, but he didn't dare to go in and face His Highness. He was ridiculed by Qin Tianhua at the door.
The Regent was already impatient. After hearing the movement at the door, he calmly said in a calm voice: "Don't you get in!"
Eunuch Wei staggered into the house, lowering his head and not daring to look at His Highness's expression.
"Where is the invitation from the Hou Mansion?"
Eunuch Wei frowned and said, "The prince's mansion has no invitation from the Yongxing Marquis' Mansion yet. Perhaps it is because the marquis' mansion has not had time to deliver it. Wait a little longer, and there should be something."
Even Eunuch Wei understood that what he said was just a comfort, so how could the Regent not know?
His Highness the Regent suddenly grabbed the note in his hand into a ball and threw it into the brazier.
"What a Yongxing Hou. I'm so lucky to have been waiting for you for so long, but I'm even stingy with an invitation. I don't take this seriously!"
What makes people most angry is that not only Mu Xiuji, but also Jiang Zhenchuan has invitations! Only he, the regent, does not! Shen Yuntang is really good at doing things!
Of course, Shen Yuntang, who was helping prepare for the banquet in the mansion, did not know the regent's idea.
She hasn't even followed this man in this period.
This past month is probably the most comfortable month that Shen Yuntang has lived in Dayan. Without the slightest disturbance of the Regent, his grandfather's condition gradually improved, and the Marquis's mansion also gradually earned more money. During the Chinese New Year this year, the Marquis' mansion was completely renewed, and the sisters could also spend a fat year. Even the married lady was taken care of by the Marquis' mansion, and everything was changing in a good direction. When this wave of vegetables was introduced, the Marquis' mansion would go to a higher level.
