Yao Shishi was really tired and she didn't want to go, but if she had no value, Changlefang wouldn't support her.
She said: "You go and get ready. Bring your pipa and harp. I'll go and inform the eldest son that the Wu family wants to invite me to perform."
She has her own dance team, and the repertoire is readily available. From the five thousand taels of silver, she can get one thousand taels, and the others can also get some. The rest of the money will go to Changlefang. This is a very profitable business for them.
However, apart from Changlefang, which allowed her to make money so quickly, she didn't know where else a woman could make money.
Just as she walked to the private room on the second floor, she seemed to hear the words "Mu Lingwei", "Jun Mohan" and other words.
When she heard the words "Jun Mochen", her heart trembled and she thought to herself: "What happened to Prince Jun?"
Yao Shishi didn't know about Princess Anyang's assassination, but Princess Anyang's name was Mu Lingwei, which had spread throughout the streets, so she also guessed that Princess Anyang was Doctor Mu whom she had met once.
It was some kind of fate that she also liked Doctor Mu's informal character.
I just didn't expect that she was already married and was still a princess.
So, she got closer and heard that they seemed to be plotting something?
In an instant, when she heard the word "death date", Yao Shishi was so frightened that she took a few steps back and quickly ran towards the third floor.
Ordinary guests are not allowed to go upstairs, so there is no one in the corridor.
At this moment, she seemed to hear footsteps, and Yao Shishi responded quickly, her face still as calm as water, calm and collected.
The next moment, Shen Chen suddenly appeared at the stairs on the third floor, and Yao Shishi had already changed her clothes and was about to go downstairs.
Yao Shishi said calmly: "My eldest son, are you leaving now? Shishi has something to talk to you about."
He looked at her with deep eyes, "Did Shishi just come down?"
Yao Shishi was a little confused. She opened her big eyes and said, "The young master of the Wu family sent an invitation for Shishi to perform at the Wu Mansion. Xiaohe has already collected the money, so Shishi came here to say something to the second young master."
"Grain merchant Wu family?" Shen Chen asked.
"Exactly." Yao Shishi said again.
"Go, it's the Chinese New Year now, and there aren't many guests in Changlefang. Bring two bodyguards with you." Shen Chen said, as long as there is money to be made, Shen Chen will certainly seize the opportunity.
Yao Shishi is from Changlefang, and no one dares to touch her without bodyguards.
Because she is beautiful, Shen Chen is just in case, afraid that others will touch his money tree.
Just as Shen Chen was about to leave, Yao Shishi said again: "Since Prince Jun and His Royal Highness Prince Heping and others have not come to Changlefang often, our business has dropped a lot. Shishi is thinking about whether we should find a way to attract business."
Since the Shen family lost that batch of jewelry, Shen Chen has also been worried about money. It is difficult to gather so many jewelry and silver.
Shen Shen said: "How much money did the Wu family give?"
"Five thousand taels." Yao Shishi said honestly.
"Ask him to add another five thousand," Shen Chen said again.
Yao Shishi knew that the Wu family was a wealthy businessman and had money, so Yao Shishi did not refute, "Yes, I will let someone tell me."
However, why do the eldest and second young masters seem so short of money?
After Shen Chen left, Yao Shishi finally felt relieved. As long as Prince Jun was fine, it seemed like she was being careless. Prince Jun and Shen Yu were friends, and there was no way they could harm Prince Jun.
Besides, he is the son of the regent, who dares to touch him?
Could it be that the people they want to deal with are King Anyang and Princess Anyang?
Yao Shishi knew that she couldn't meddle in her own business, and it had nothing to do with her.
So Yao Shishi also put this matter behind her and went to Wu Mansion.
-
On the other side, Mu Lingwei and Bai Changyan had already changed into men's clothes and slipped out of the back door of the hospital.
They drove an ordinary carriage to the gate of Wu Mansion.
After she finished treating the guards, she asked Shaoyao to pretend to be her and stay in the hospital.
Now everyone thinks she is still in the hospital, including her own people.
Boss Mu has been waiting outside the gate of Wu Mansion. The first thing he said when he saw Mu Lingwei was: "I heard that you were assassinated. Are you injured anywhere?"
"It's okay, I wasn't hurt. It was Bai Changyan and the others who protected me. They were slightly injured," Mu Lingwei said.
"Thank you, Mr. Bai." Mr. Mu said.
Bai Changyan also changed his clothes, and the wounds on his body were bandaged and sutured so that they could not be seen even after changing his clothes.
Mu Lingwei admired him very much. He had good endurance and didn't look like a pretty boy at all.
"Uncle, you're welcome. It's the apprentice's duty to protect my master." In fact, Mu Lingwei also helped them a lot. If she hadn't hidden in the carriage and shot hidden arrows, the assassin wouldn't have been able to deal with it so easily.
Especially the crossbows upstairs.
"Master Yan just arrived in Dayuan City today. They will leave tomorrow, and tomorrow happens to be the Chinese New Year. It will be difficult to see him after he leaves." Boss Mu added, "The Wu family also has business dealings with Master Yan.
, the Wu family is also a grain merchant, I guess the Wu family also wants to buy grain from Master Yan."
Mu Lingwei glanced at the door and saw that it was a wealthy family.
"Did uncle watch Master Yan go in?" Mu Lingwei asked.
"I only saw the stewards of the Yan family, but Master Yan has indeed arrived in Dayuan City. His whereabouts are unknown. I only found out that they came to the Wu family after asking around."
Boss Mu sighed again: "Unfortunately, the Wu family is also a wealthy family. They won't deal with small businessmen like us, so we have to wait for Master Yan to come out."
Boss Mu once had a relationship with Mr. Yan, so it shouldn't be difficult to meet him and talk to Mr. Yan about buying grain. Anyway, as long as you have money, it will be easy.
Mu Lingwei also thought to herself: "It's so late, and the Wu Mansion seems to be holding a banquet. If Master Yan stays at the Wu Mansion tonight, wouldn't they just wait. But how to get in? She must go in person.
Once you meet him, you will understand the character of Lord Yan."
So, Mu Lingwei said: "Bai Changyan, let's sneak in."
"This kind of wealthy family has guards, and it's even more difficult to explain if they are discovered." Boss Mu reminded: "Besides, wouldn't it be a bit presumptuous to go to see Master Yan rashly?"
At this time, two carriages stopped in front of Wu Mansion, and Yao Shishi and a group of women got off the carriage.
There were two fierce thugs beside the carriage, who seemed to be protecting Yao Shishi's safety.
Mu Lingwei recognized Yao Shishi at a glance, and instantly she had an idea, "I have an acquaintance, don't worry."
Bai Changyan also saw Yao Shishi. Their people seemed to be carrying something into the Wu Mansion. There were also several large boxes containing the dance skirts of the dancers.
The housekeeper of the Wu Mansion has already greeted them and is negotiating with them.
So, Mu Lingwei glanced into the distance again. The area around Wu Mansion was quite prosperous, and there were vendors selling things all around.
"Bai Changyan, go and buy that old man's candied haws, complete with the shelf..." Mu Lingwei whispered.
After Bai Changyan heard this, he understood instantly.
After a while, I saw Bai Changyan not only carrying the candied haws on his shoulders, but also wearing the old man's patched clothes. He said: "Master, do the whole show and I'll sell it. I'm the best at business."
Mu Lingwei saw that he looked like a pretty boy, "It's a pity that such a handsome man sells candied haws."
