The first day of competition passed quickly, and the people talked about last night.
With the popularity on the first day, Chu Yunning took advantage of the victory to pursue it the next day.
"Miss, one of our ships was seized from the other side."
Chu Yunning raised her chin: "Go and tell the brothers, don't be soft, I'll take care of anything that happens!"
There was a dispute among several boats on the lake, but Chu Yunning was not panicked at all. She had long expected that this day would happen. All the boatmen were guards with high martial arts skills.
After several battles, Yisilou did not gain the upper hand, but overturned several ships on the opposite side.
The matter quickly reached the government.
Chu Yunning also got her wish and met the person in charge of Yihong Tower, the legendary Jing Niang.
Jing Niang came down slowly in a soft sedan chair, holding a round fan in her hand and walking towards her swayingly.
Just by looking at that face, Chu Yunning could understand why the late emperor had a soft spot for Jing Niang.
After so many years, Jing Niang has taken good care of herself. She looks like she is in her early thirties. She is dressed in red and has a skin that is as good as snow. She has a delicate face and a graceful temperament.
If he didn't know his identity, just by looking at his temperament, he would be believed to be the empress of the palace.
"Are you the owner of Yisi Tower?"
Jing Niang's voice is also very gentle, and she has small dimples at the corners of her mouth when she smiles, which makes her a little more friendly and sweet.
It is hard to imagine that such a delicate woman is in charge of Yihong Mansion, and that people mention her and admire her, but also hate her.
When she thought of the murderer of her son across from her, Chu Yunning suppressed her anger.
"It's just a small misunderstanding. There is no need to go to the Jingdong government. Princess Xiao, calm down. I will go back and teach those ignorant people a lesson, and then I will apologize to you."
Unexpectedly, Jingniang's attitude was gentle, humble and polite.
Not at all as ruthless as the rumors say.
"How can it be a trivial matter? Someone almost died. The moat is so big. People in Yisi Tower try to avoid it. Jing Niang should take good care of the ignorant servants in Yihong Tower."
Chu Yunning was aggressive, but Jingniang always kept a smile on her face: "Being angry can hurt your health. I know it's not easy for Princess Xiao to raise a child alone..."
By mentioning the child, the other person was deliberately trying to anger her.
Chu Yunning took a deep breath and tried her best to stay calm and not be fooled.
"I heard that Princess Xiao's child was lost a while ago. I thought that the child was finally found and that Princess Xiao could spend time with her child at home. I didn't expect that she would go out to do business so soon."
Jingniang's words about "child" and "child" again and again were like a knife stabbing into her heart.
Chu Yunning smiled back: "It was my negligence before that allowed the villain to succeed. I will never do it again in the future."
"I hope so."
The two went to court, but no one benefited.
But everyone knew that the owner of Yisi Building was Princess Xiao!
"No wonder Mr. Jing Zhaoyin is partial. It turns out to be Princess Xiao."
"Why does Yihonglou take Princess Xiao so seriously? Just wait and see, Yisilou will disappear soon."
next day
Chu Yunning arranged a water-sleeved song and dance performance, connecting small boats to the shore, which was also the only way to Yihong Tower. Each boat was hung with lanterns, lighting up the entire lake like daylight.
There are beautiful girls dancing on every boat, giving everyone on the shore a clear view.
"Is this useful?" Prince Xiao asked.
Chu Yunning said: "It may not be useful for a while, it depends on who can hold on."
For several days, Yisilou kept doing various tricks, gradually attracting many customers.
These have not yet reached Chu Yunning's ideal state.
She inquired about the properties under Jing Niang's name, and she wanted to destroy them one by one.
Pawn shop, appreciation shop, cosmetics shop, beauty shop, drug shop
Chu Yunning took out half of her dowry and opened a new shop next to Jingniang's shop.
In terms of cosmetics shops alone, more than a dozen were opened in one go.
The trained maid set up a table at the door of the shop, with a bronze mirror on the table.
and novel cosmetics.
Even the model was ready, and the maid started applying it on the model's face at the door.
Soon many people gathered to watch.
"What kind of powder is this? It's so white?"
"Will it fall off as soon as you wipe it?"
"Why does this lipstick come in so many colors?"
It is the nature of women to love beauty, no matter young or old.
“Everyone can try makeup for free, and you can buy it after trying it out.”
The shopkeeper said to the people watching that some people were eager to try.
"These are all lies. They are poisonous. If you put them on your face, you will be poisoned soon." Someone in the crowd shouted.
"Ah, it's poisonous!" The onlookers backed away one after another with horrified expressions on their faces.
The shopkeeper calmly picked up a stick of lipstick and took a bite: "Please rest assured, these are pure green plants that are pollution-free."
Immediately after the shopkeeper raised his hand, the man who had just made trouble was quickly restrained by two powerful men.
The shopkeeper was unfazed by the honor and disgrace and seemed to have already dealt with it.
"I don't know who sent this person to frame him. Once he is discovered, he will not be spared lightly and will be sent to the government!"
Only then did the surrounding area become quiet.
The shopkeeper added: "In the new store opening event, everyone will buy one and get one free, and you will get as much as you recharge, which is valid for life."
The model's face is half painted, and the other hand is holding a fan, switching between faces from time to time.
Half ordinary and half fairy, everyone saw it and rushed to buy it.
The cosmetics prepared by ten shops were all gone in just an instant.
In the clothing store, Chu Yunning personally designed a runway for the maids to wear
clothes, and put on exquisite makeup to walk on the catwalk.
"Every piece of clothing comes in sizes, all are limited edition, first come, first served!"
An hour later, all the clothes in the store were sold out.
The shopkeeper added: "You can customize styles in the store. There are pictures and prices. It's hot outside, and there are free tea and snacks inside. If you are interested, why don't you come in and have a seat?"
Upon hearing this, people came in one after another.
At this time, a carriage passed in front of the shop, and the curtain was raised and quickly lowered again.
"Master, Princess Xiao is determined to go against you."
Jing Niang pursed her red lips and looked solemn.
"Master, our business has been affected. If this continues, I'm afraid it will be detrimental to you."
"I underestimated her."
Jing Niang sighed, who would have thought that Princess Xiao had such ability, she could mess up her business in just a few days, causing her heavy losses.
At this time, an anxious voice came from outside the curtain: "Master, our goods have been seized outside the city."
Jing Niang's face changed slightly.
"Who is so short-sighted that you dare to seize Yihonglou's goods?" Maid Bai Cha said angrily: "Don't you know the guard is from Yihonglou?"
"Master, the one who was seized was the escort flag general. He was merciless and burned dozens of carriages in front of everyone."
When Jing Niang heard this, she was immediately furious: "He is so brave and dares to provoke me like this!"
"Master, please calm down. General Biaoqi is so disrespectful. Why don't we think of a way to teach him a lesson...ah!"
Bai Cha suddenly let out a scream, the horse roared, and the car body suddenly shook, causing the two people in the carriage to stumble in shock. Fortunately, the carriage was subdued after a moment.
"Master, are you okay?" Bai Cha stepped forward and asked with concern. Jing Niang waved her hands and leaned her back against the car wall: "Go and see what's going on?"
Bai Cha lifted the curtain and leaned out, then quickly retracted.
"Master, it was Mr. Li who was catching the assassin. He accidentally frightened his horse and he has already left."
If it had been in the past, Jing Niang might have thought this was a coincidence.
But at this moment, Jingniang was keenly aware that this matter was closely related to Chu Yunning.
"Master, could it be Princess Xiao who did it?" Bai Cha also doubted it.
Jingniang shook her head: "I can't rule out whether it's her."
"Master, Princess Xiao..." Bai Cha made a killing gesture.
"Old rules."
Jing Niang rubbed her eyebrows. She had no intention of going against Chu Yunning, but she also didn't want to be pushed into a blind corner by her step by step.
If you want to blame her, blame her for pushing her too far, letting out her anger, and not knowing how to stop when things are good.
Since she insists on going against Yihonglou, don't blame her for being cruel.
The night is getting dark
Chu Yunning listened to the subtle footsteps on the roof and sneered at the corner of her mouth.
Soon the sound of swords sounded, and soon a group of people fell into a fight.
Half an hour later, my ears were quiet again.
"Bixiu, you stay with Beibei, I'll go out and take a look."
Bi Xiu nodded.
Beibei grabbed Chu Yunning's arm: "Mom, you have to go early and come back early, Beibei is worried about you."
"Don't worry Beibei, my mother will be fine."
Chu Yunning bent down and kissed Beibei on the forehead.
When I went out, I saw the men in black on the ground, all of them had broken teeth and died of anger.
"If the master hadn't arranged it on the roof in advance, we might not have been able to capture them," Tianyi said.
Chu Yunning sprinkled densely packed poisonous insects on all the bricks and tiles on the Chu family's eaves. They were so small that they couldn't be seen with the naked eye without looking carefully.
No matter how good these people are in Qinggong, they still have to rely on the eaves. As long as the tip of their shoes touches the eaves, they will be infected with small poisonous insects. The small poisonous insects will climb up along the shoes and burrow in when they come into contact with the skin.
It is neither painful nor itchy, making it difficult to detect. By the time it is discovered, the small poisonous insects have already penetrated into the internal organs, causing these people to lose their power.
"Put it in a box and send it to the gate of Yihongyuan."
When Bai Cha saw the person in the box, he angrily cursed "trash" and asked someone to deal with it quickly.
After gathering his emotions, he went into the house to serve Jing Niang.
"Failed?" Jingniang guessed the result by looking at Bai Cha's face.
I just wonder, the Jing Guards never failed, how did Chu Yunning escape?
"Where are the people? Call them in. I have something to ask."
Bai Cha said anxiously: "Master, none of the people sent out were left alive. Princess Xiao sent people to stuff them all into boxes and send them back."
"What did you say?" Jing Niang's eyes widened in disbelief. She sent out twenty Jing Guards, but not one of them survived. After Jing Niang calmed down, she became even more curious as to how Chu Yunning did it.
