Chapter 287 Spring Wind Tower
Han Youning listened to her in silence.
Wang Caidan held her hand, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Zhaoping, can you go and see him... I know I'm embarrassing you, but the demons in the prince's cousin's heart are hard to get rid of, and only you can save him. As long as he is willing to take medicine,
It’ll be nice if you can wake up.”
Han Youning declined her politely, "Prince Jiren has his own destiny, and nothing will happen to him. There are many talented people in the Imperial Hospital, and there will definitely be a way to save people."
If something really happened to Zhao Chen, Zhao Chengyuan would definitely not be able to escape the blame. They could think of this, and Zhao Chengyuan could also think of it, and he would definitely not sit idly by and ignore it.
It's okay for Zhao Chengyuan to do this. If she gets involved again, it will make the matter more and more complicated and not end well.
Wang Caidan sighed, "Zhaoping, the prince has done so much for you. Now it's uncertain whether he will live or die. Can you really remain indifferent?"
"Of course there is some movement." Han Youning looked at the sudden hope in Wang Caidan's eyes and said calmly, "Yuxiang Pills are temporarily on the market. Such a big thing has happened to the prince. It is not appropriate for me to sell things happily here."
"Zhaoping you..."
Wang Caidan smiled bitterly, "That's all, it's me who makes things difficult for others."
She walked outside.
Han Youning looked at her lonely back and called her, "Princess Princess."
Wang Caidan stopped and turned around.
Han Youning asked, "Does the princess like the prince?"
Wang Caidan said calmly, "He is my cousin, we grew up together."
cousin.
Han Youning nodded, "Yes, I am also sad that my cousin is sick."
Han Youning and Han Qinglian sent Wang Caidan and the others to Chuihua Gate and watched them get on the carriage and leave.
Han Qinglian then explained to Han Youning, "Eldest sister, the second sister asked me to go to your place just now because she was afraid that you would not be able to entertain the two princesses yourself. I think it makes sense..."
Han Youning said, "Even if you don't accompany her, she can still go to Jinhe Hall, but she just doesn't have the qualifications to enter the house directly."
She went to Han Qingwan's yard.
The maid and woman who were staying in the side room hurriedly welcomed him out and brought tea and water.
Han Qingwan was applying ice to her hand through a handkerchief. Her hand had already been smeared with medicine. It was very red and swollen. She would probably have blisters soon.
Han Youning said coldly, "Second sister, it's best not to say some nonsense, so as not to bring disaster to yourself."
Han Qingwan glanced at Han Youning coldly, "Do you think you can cover the sky with just one hand? I'm having a hard time, and you can't have a good time either."
Han Youning's eyes were filled with coldness, "Isn't this what you call a hard life? You are wrong, this is not how a hard life is."
Han Qingwan sneered, "I have nothing left but this life. Is the eldest sister planning to kill me?"
"What's the point of death? If living was easy, Mrs. Wen and Little Wen wouldn't commit suicide. If you dare to act recklessly, you will soon know what it means to have a hard life." Han Youning looked around at the maids and women in the room.
, "Take good care of the second lady. She has an injury on her hand, so it's better to go out less often."
This is how maids and women should salute.
Han Qingwan said angrily, "You want to detain me?"
"right."
Han Youning waved his sleeves and left.
When she returned to Jinhe Hall, Yu Niang had packed up her needlework and was standing in the corridor waiting for her.
"Yu Niang, what are you doing outside? Go back to the house and talk."
Yu Niang didn't move, "Oh, I have a lot of things to do outside. How can I waste time here with you every day? I have to go! The shop has been busy these past two days, and I won't come over. You can just embroider a purse anyway."
Not to me."
Looking at her forced smile, Han Youning frowned and said, "Yu Niang, I don't want the second lady to finish her words, not because I'm afraid she will damage my reputation. Since I have always used you, I won't care about your life experience.
Now that you have become a good man and are about to get married, the capital is the place where you can live your life again, and you cannot let her ruin it."
"If the king comes to dislike me for being a prostitute, I won't marry him. There's nothing to be afraid of!"
There was a rare seriousness on Yu Niang's face, "It's just that you are going to be a princess soon, and your reputation is the most important thing. You shouldn't let people like me get you involved."
Han Youning held her hand and said, "When you escorted me out of Xiangping Mansion, were you ever afraid that I would harm you?"
"Silly girl, I did it for the money!"
Yu Niang took out her hand, waved the handkerchief and said impatiently, "Oh, I'm leaving!"
--
Chen Yong, the shopkeeper of Yuxiang Pavilion, is here. He has just returned from Xiangping Mansion and is very tired.
The man behind him carried a dozen large boxes and cages and placed them on the ground.
He knelt down and kowtowed to Han Youning, "Congratulations to the eldest lady on your great joy! I heard your good news on the way, I am really blessed by God!"
"Shopkeeper Chen, please get up quickly and sit down to talk."
Han Youning was a little surprised that he came back so early. He originally expected to have to wait until Nian Gen.
Calculating this, I'm afraid there won't be any delays along the way, and I'll be on my way day and night.
Chen Yong stood up but refused to sit down. He smiled and opened several boxes. Inside were a dazzling array of jewelry, antiques, calligraphy and paintings.
"These are all taken back from those corrupt officials. They sold a lot of our store's inventory at a low price. The slaves converted it to the market price, and asked them to fill in the difference with their own silver. If it wasn't enough, they paid for it with jewelry, calligraphy and paintings. Yes.
Prince Jin’s token was there, and there were majestic palace guards guarding him. They were all so frightened that they vomited out everything they had eaten!”
He handed a booklet to Han Youning and said, "This is the list. Miss, please take a look."
Han Youning opened it and took a look. He really saw that the people pushed against the wall and the silver taels confiscated by the officials actually amounted to more than two to three million taels.
"I'm afraid the Chen family's business and shop are empty, right?"
Chen Yong sighed, "The eldest lady is right. Most of the shops need to be refurbished, especially the Chen Family Silver Building. It was almost looted by Yongping Marquis and those corrupt officials. It will probably take the next spring to recover. I will take the silver coins I want back."
I left them all for them to distribute goods and use them for turnover."
Han Youning nodded, it was not easy for him to achieve this level.
She ordered tea and said, "Shopkeeper Chen, sit down. I have a lot of questions to ask you."
Chen Yong then smiled naively and sat down restrainedly.
Han Youning asked, "Grandma, two uncles and aunts, and five cousins..." She couldn't help but feel a sore nose as she spoke, "Have they all been settled?"
Chen Yong's expression also darkened, "Back to the eldest lady, everything has been arranged. It was jointly done by the storekeepers of the business and the shop. I went to the Chen family's ancestral graves, and also offered incense for the eldest lady, and talked with the old lady.
The ladies and young masters have told you about your situation here. You are now safe here, and they must be happy."
Han Youning looked sad. She didn't know if they would blame her for being unfilial since she got married so early.
Chen Yong talked about some things in the Chen family's house, and then talked about a big news in Xiangping Mansion.
"Chunfenglou, the famous brothel in Xiangping Prefecture, was massacred overnight. There were dozens of prostitutes, turtle girls, and maids, and not a single one was left. The newly appointed prefect investigated the case and found that it was the work of Yongping Marquis and the former prefect.
I heard that a report was written and sent to the Ministry of Punishment."
