Chapter 98 Know some inside information (please vote)
Hearing this, Chao Li was shocked, but he didn't show it on his face.
"Then respect is worse than obeying orders."
Song Ling stamped her feet anxiously, "Ali!"
Listening to the meaning in the words, Chaoli had any doubts that Linglong needed to answer, and Linglong should know.
But what Song Lingxin is most worried about now is that Linglong has any evil intentions towards Chaoli. Apart from Linglong's appearance, her appearance today is also very strange.
"It's okay, Miss Linglong is a nice person." Chaoli patted Song Lingxin's hand.
It doesn't matter even if Pei Qian is not here, she still has Pei Yu by her side to protect her.
In the past, it was not convenient for Pei Qian to serve around him. He was a man after all, so Chaoli arranged for him to keep an eye on the shop and what was going on in the palace.
But even if only Pei Yu was there, Chaoli was very calm. She could see that there was no calculation in Linglong's eyes and she was calm.
After saying a few words to Song Lingxin, Chaoli and Linglong walked onto her boat together.
When Shen Lianyi saw this, a deep meaning flashed in his eyes.
When they arrived at Linglong's boat, Chaoli realized that it looked luxurious outside, but even more exquisite inside. She was taken up to the third floor by Linglong, while Qingyi and Pei Yu stayed on the second floor.
Obviously, they have something to say alone.
"Prince Princess, please sit down." Linglong smiled and asked Chaoli to sit down.
Chaoli nodded, "Thank you."
The two sat down facing each other. Refreshments and tea were already placed on the small mahogany table. They should have been prepared in advance, and there were two servings.
Seeing this, Chaoli knew clearly that Linglong might have asked someone to prepare things after discovering her, and she was sure that she would follow her.
"Prince Concubine, won't you continue to ask me?" Linglong suddenly leaned on the table and approached Chao Li and spoke.
Warm breath sprayed on Chaoli's face, carrying a fragrance unique to Linglong. It was not like the incense used by ordinary women, but it was a bit unique, and her appearance.
As a woman, observing Linglong at such a close distance made Chaoli a little distracted. There was such a beautiful woman in the world. It was truly a blessing from God.
I wonder who will get the advantage of such a beautiful woman like Linglong in the end?
"Since the girl asked me to come, she would definitely tell me. I'm not in a hurry." Chaoli picked up the teacup and took a sip.
After entering the mouth, this tea has a slight irritation, long and comfortable, and then the taste is sweet, refreshing and comfortable on the tongue.
"How is my tea? How does it compare to the Hou Mansion?" Linglong also sat down again and took a sip and asked.
Chaoli put down the tea cup in his hand and told the truth.
"The tea has a mellow aroma, freshness and fullness, the bitterness can be melted away, and the fragrance is rich and long-lasting. Even a person like me who doesn't know how to taste tea can taste it as a good tea."
"It is said that the Crown Princess is obsessed with the Crown Prince, has no ideas, and stalks the Crown Prince. It seems that the rumors are not credible." Linglong put down the tea cup.
The woman in front of her is neither humble nor arrogant. Her status is indeed high enough, but she doesn't get the respect she deserves.
In the final analysis, it still has something to do with Gu Hanzhang.
"The purpose of Miss Linglong asking me to come here seems not to be to drink tea. I come from a small family and am really not good at drinking tea. But just now, Miss Linglong said that she knew what the spices I encountered on the day of the palace banquet were. I'm a little curious, how did the girl know? Scholars, farmers, industry and commerce, merchants were at the bottom, and palace banquets were not allowed in, but Miss Linglong was so well-informed. Of course, I didn't have any rank in my mind, and it didn't matter who I was in chatting with you. How about it, Miss Linglong might as well speak up."
Chaoli did not intend to continue this topic, but got down to business.
Linglong also straightened her expression, "A few days ago, I went to inspect the property under my name, and found that someone got a spice from southern Xinjiang, which happened to be sold in my shop. I didn't care about it at first, but I heard about this spice
It has a wonderful effect when mixed with grape wine. Some couples in southern Xinjiang use it to entertain themselves in the boudoir. It is not a drug, so nothing can be found. It happened that after the palace banquet was over, a young lady came to my place to play chess with me. It happened that
Only when I mentioned this incident did I realize that someone was using spices to harm people, so they were all burned."
"Oh? Miss Linglong is kind-hearted and burns those harmful things." Chaoli said softly.
Both of them were testing, and Chaoli knew very well that the friend Linglong mentioned was also an excuse, and he didn't even know whether this person existed.
But it can also be seen from here that Linglong is by no means a simple ordinary merchant.
I am afraid that he is also related to some people in the DPRK and has his own power.
However, Gu Hanzhang didn't have much contact with Linglong in his previous life. It's unclear whether she didn't know or the two really didn't have much personal contact.
"Isn't the Crown Princess curious, who bought this spice? You know, there are only a few women who can interfere with the palace banquet. The Crown Princess has been plotted against, doesn't she want to seek justice for herself?
?" Linglong is good at tempting.
Chaoli's face was expressionless, "The Queen Mother has already provided justice for me, what justice do I need to get back? Miss Linglong, I remember that the Queen Mother ordered her to be sealed, but I didn't expect you to know this."
It's not that I don't want to know the inside story, it's just that I can't show it in front of Linglong.
It seems that Linglong should know some inside information.
Chaoli never thought about asking Gu Hanzhang to help her investigate. It was her business in the first place. It was not easy for her to go to him, and it was not easy to go to the harem to investigate.
But the Queen Mother meant that that was the end of it, but Chaoli still wanted to know who it was.
It makes no sense to be plotted like this. You have to pay it back after all, so this time Linglong has some news here, so Chaoli chose to come here.
Linglong's face was full of hatred, "Why don't you seek justice? I don't believe that you can't see the loopholes in that matter based on your intelligence. Chaozhen doesn't have the ability to plot against you. So, Crown Princess, you can
Make good friends with me and become my friend. Since we are friends, it is reasonable for me to tell you who this matter is related to."
"Oh? Why me? I think according to Miss Linglong's reputation, I don't need to be friends with you. I'm just a helpless woman. Miss Linglong is unparalleled in talent and love, and she also has her own connections, which is not bad.
Friend." Chaoli raised his eyebrows.
That being said, friendship is just an excuse.
Through the chess game, after getting familiar with her, she will probably show her true face.
She had never had any contact with Linglong in her previous life. She didn't know Linglong very well, so she had to deal with him carefully.
"The Crown Princess doesn't know that I have not had many friends accompanying me in the more than ten years I have been in the capital. I met the Crown Princess on the street before, and I was impressed by the Crown Princess. I want to make friends with you sincerely." Linglong's face was full of sincerity.
sincere.
The corner of Chao Li's mouth twitched slightly. If it were someone else, he might have believed it.
