Jing County.

Mrs. Du received the urgent letter from Wang Yongzhu, and knew that something might be wrong.

First, let the person who had arranged for the messenger of the letter to go down to rest, and then he went into the study and opened the letter to read it, revealing a contemplative look.

After thinking about it, someone invited Mrs. Qi and handed her the letter.

Mrs. Qi took the letter and read it at a glance, and then let out a sigh: "I think this is very good, to be honest, doing business with the queen, I always have a feeling of unsteadiness in my heart." Now it's better to hand it all over, and we'll be free. What's more, won't this Qingzhou Mansion and Jing County be returned to us to keep, and it won't be idle for a while. ”

Doctor Du naturally agreed: "Then since this is the case, I will copy out the recipe first, and let people send it to the boss of the capital first, and when the time comes, the capital will be done, just go directly to the boss and take the recipe away." ”

"Yongzhu's side, I'll also reply to a letter. I pondered, in the past few years, our old couple has also made a lot of money because of this fat powder business. ”

"This recipe was originally taken out by Yongzhu at the beginning, and I only added one or two things at my discretion, and the main credit is this recipe. sells so well, and Yongzhu and the boy of the Li family have the ability, and the face of the queen is in it. We didn't do much to make a difference, but Yongzhu honored us, and it was enough to follow the eaters for so many years. ”

"Over there in the capital, De Yongzhu came forward to talk to the queen, no matter what the negotiation is, and what compensation the queen has, let's not ask for it. At our age, even if the silver reaches our necks, it won't cost much. On the other hand, Yongzhu and their side, I'm afraid that when they need the money, they will still be behind, so let's use them as much as possible. ”

Mrs. Qi thought about it, in the past few years, because of the dividends of the red sleeves, the old couple has indeed made a lot of money, and it is not worse than their family's ancestral pharmacy business.

Now the eldest and second eldest are studying medicine and the other is running a pharmacy, and the Du family looks inconspicuous in the capital, but they are rich inside, and there is really no shortage of silver.

also nodded simply: "It's up to you, you can make it clear to Yongzhu in your letters, let her not worry, let's be the master and the master, and keep it without dragging her back." ”

The old couple has made a decision, one is going to write a letter, and the other is going to think about arranging the finishing work.

As Wang Yongzhu expected, without the slightest twist and turn, this side agreed.

It's over there in the capital.

Because the emperor sent them to Akagi, naturally those people did not dare to focus on the matter of opening the trade route.

Every once in a while, if there is any progress, I have to write a letter back to the capital.

Naturally, there is a special expedited channel for this letter, and Wang Yongzhu is also single, and directly brought the letter to the queen back to the capital with those people.

When the emperor saw the letter to the empress on the case, the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching.

This Mrs. Dingguo put out the matter of her private contact with the queen so openly, is this for him to read this letter? Or do you read this letter?

After hesitating for a long time, the emperor still didn't open the letter, and asked people to send the letter to the queen's Changchun Palace.

When the queen received a letter from the emperor's chamberlain, she was overjoyed at first.

What is there to say about this majesty, he lives in the palace, and he has to see him two or three times a day, why do he have to write a letter if he has something?

When I looked at the handwriting on the envelope again, I was shocked, and my back was sweating.

But in the end, she was stable, and she could calmly ask the waiter who sent the letter: "What is this letter?" ”

The chamberlain got the emperor's orders, and answered honestly: "This is Mrs. Dingguo's 800 miles to the capital urgently, and it was sent to Your Majesty together. ”

The queen was apprehensive, and she had to keep a smile on her face, so she asked someone to take a purse and reward the chamberlain.

Only then did he bring the letter inside, and first looked at the envelope, and there was no trace of it being opened.

The queen's heart was half cut down first, opened the letter, and read it carefully.

Hongscarlet and Lucui, who were waiting outside, were playing with the nurse and the Nine Emperors, when they heard a "clang" in the room, and the sound of being pushed to the ground.

The Nine Emperor Princes, who were originally happy, heard this voice and were immediately frightened and cried.

Hongshou hurriedly picked up the Nine Emperor Princes, stuffed them into the nurse's arms, and asked her to hold the Nine Emperor Princes to avoid the side hall to coax them.

Only then did the two of them enter the room with bated breath.

In the warm pavilion in the inner room, the kang table on the kang was overturned to the ground, and the tea and snacks on it, as well as the white jade incense burner, were all smashed, and the ground was in a mess.

The queen pinched the letter paper, her face was calm, her chest rose and fell, and she looked angry in her heart at first glance, otherwise she would not have lost her temper to smash things.

Lucui didn't dare to call anyone else in, so she only squatted down to clean up, and didn't dare to make any noise.

Hongscarlet stepped forward and said cautiously: "Niangniang is angry, don't be angry!" ”

While patting the queen on the back, he smoothed it.

The queen took several deep breaths before she could barely suppress her anger, and snorted coldly: "Okay, let them come in and clean up!" ”

Lucui hurriedly agreed, went out and called two little palace maids, cleaned up the mess in this place, and wiped the ground with a hot cloth before withdrawing.

Lu Cui also went out, while warning the people waiting in the palace: "Let's just say that I accidentally fell, knocked over the kang table, and smashed these things!" If I hear any gossip, watch your skins! ”

The palace people who were waiting down were busy nodding their heads to indicate that they understood.

Only then did Lu Cui bring fresh tea and snacks into the warm pavilion.

When she went in again, the queen was already leaning on the pillow, her eyes were slightly closed, and Hongscarlet was kneeling behind her, massaging her temples.

Seeing Lucui coming in, he hurriedly gave her a look.

After offering the tea and snacks, she carefully knelt aside and thumped the queen's legs.

After a while, the queen's face looked better, and the two of them mustered up the courage to ask: "But what did Mrs. Dingguo say in the letter?" Mother so angry? ”

The queen snorted coldly: "She's very good! But I lost a problem to this palace! A bunch of useless wastes who have not done enough to achieve more than they have failed! ”

Hongscarlet and Lucui don't know who the queen is scolding, listening to this tone, it shouldn't be scolding Mrs. Dingguo, that is?

These two girls are the queen's henchmen, and they have always kept some things from them.

What's more, if it is really as Wang Yongzhu said in the letter, there are still things to do next, and these two girls have to do it, and they can't hide it.

He simply threw the letter to the two men and let them read it for themselves.

Hongfei and Lucui glanced at each other, took the letter, and read it together, finally knowing why the queen was so angry.
