Offending the Commandery Prince of Nan 'an.
Jia Zhen was not worried at all.
The Commandery Prince of Nan 'an was ambitious. He had beaten up that guy named Mu Yu.
Even if he was a distant relative of the Commandery Prince of Nan 'an, the Commandery Prince of Nan' an would only send an apology gift to Ningguo Province in the end.
Jia Zhen was so confident.
After sending away the madams in the shop, only the Third Princess and the Fifth Princess were left in the shop.
"When the shop opens for business, the business here will definitely be very good." The Third Princess nodded with satisfaction.
"It's all thanks to the Third Princess's help," Xia Lu hurriedly said.
"I didn't do anything. Even without me, with the value of this shop, customers will come sooner or later.
Speaking of which,
I'm the one who took advantage of you, "the Third Princess said.
Xia Lu smiled.
She admitted that the Third Princess was telling the truth. Gold would always shine.
However, to really infiltrate the group of madams,
It would take a lot of effort.
With the help of the Third Princess, the infiltration speed would be faster.
If the infiltration speed was fast, they would be able to make money quickly.
The initial investment would be recouped.
Thinking about the project that her Husband and the Emperor cooperated on, Xia Lu had already seen the money flowing out. The shop urgently needed to recover its capital.
"By the way, didn't you give me 10% of the dividends before? You can give me half of it. The other half can be given to my third sister, "the Third Princess said.
Xia Lu was a little surprised. She thought to herself, The Third Princess is really good to the Fifth Princess. Obviously, they are not born from the same mother. After the Third Princess met a scumbag, she was still willing to take the trouble to ask the Emperor Emeritus to give her a princess mansion and let the Fifth Princess take her child to another place. Now, she is willing to buy a property for the Fifth Princess. Xia Lu was sure that the Fifth Princess must be very tight on money. Today, although she tried to maintain the clothes that a princess should wear, it could be seen that the style of the golden hairpins on her head was a little outdated.
"I have no objections. After all, it has already been given to the Princess. The Princess can make the decision," Xia Lu said.
"Third Sister, you can't do that," the Fifth Princess was stunned and hurriedly said.
The Third Princess patted her sister's hand. She was a silly girl who was tricked by her mother.... She was such a kind girl, but she ended up going to that tiger and wolf's den and made her Father unhappy... and now her children were grown up and would enter the Imperial Court in the future......... and Imperial Father had also given some rewards, but there was no other than her sister's annual salary. her sister had no other income. except her sister had her sister had had no other income had... and her Imperial Emperor had had some rewards... the Third Princess had also had some rewards.. when the Fifth Princess had given her Princess mansion. had had had had had had Her Princess' had some places.... of her Princess had had Her sister 'had had had her's, the had had Sister....
"I'm not asking you to take it for free. Listen to me," said the third princess.
Just as the Fifth Princess was about to say something, the steward came in and said, "Madam, Master is waiting outside. He wants to know when you will be back."
"When did he come?" Xia Lu asked.
"He came right after the Imperial Court. Later, he heard that Madam was still very busy, so he went outside to wait for Madam. He only came when he heard that it was over," the Steward said.
"You and your Husband have been married for several years. Why are you still so affectionate? Can't you leave for even a moment?" The Third Princess teased. When they had just gotten married, she had gone to the suburbs to burn incense. After the Imperial Court, the Prince had gone directly to the suburbs to pick her up. After a few years, this kind of thing had basically stopped. Now that she suddenly saw the Jia Zhen coming to pick up Xia Lu, she suddenly felt a little emotional and remembered what had happened in the past.
"He has a child's temperament." Xia Lu smiled. She felt a little helpless. He had just come to pick her up after the Imperial Court. Why did it seem like it was a special thing? Well, women in ancient times had no status. Even if they were Empresses, they could not escape the fate of being a good wife to their husbands and children.
"Well, we won't disturb Madam Countess. We'll leave first. We'll come back on the sixth day of the New Year." The Third Princess smiled and tactfully left with the Fifth Princess.
After everyone left, Xia Lu could also go home. Xia Lu got into the Jia Zhen's carriage. The Jia Zhen gave Xia Lu a big smile and said, "Wife, I'm very good today."
"What's so good about it?" Xia Lu asked.
The Jia Zhen told her what had happened when he was waiting for Xia Lu. After that, he said with a proud face, "Your Husband is very smart, right? Not only did I escape, but I also offended Commandery Prince Nan 'an. Our family didn't want to have any contact with Commandery Prince Nan' an's Mansion for a long time. Now that Commandery Prince Nan 'an's distant relative has offended me, humph, we don't have to give Commandery Prince Nan' an's New Year's gift."
After hearing this, Xia Lu's face immediately darkened. She pinched the Jia Zhen's ear and said, "What did you say? You idiot, what made you think so simply? " After being influenced by modern palace dramas for so long, Xia Lu thought about it from the perspective of a palace drama. This matter was full of loopholes.
"Ouch, ouch, ouch. Wife, let go." The Jia Zhen covered his ear. He felt that his ear was about to fall off.
Seeing the Jia Zhen in pain, Xia Lu couldn't bear to let go of the Jia Zhen's ear. However, she was still angry. She couldn't help but hit the Jia Zhen's head again. After covering his ear, the Jia Zhen began to cover his head again. He looked at Xia Lu accusingly, as if he had been bullied.
Xia Lu was helpless and said, "You still don't believe that you did something wrong, right?"
"What did I do wrong?" The Jia Zhen felt that he didn't do anything wrong. He felt that he had killed two birds with one stone. He had taught Mu Yu a lesson, separated himself from Nan 'an Commandery Prince, and saved the woman's life. After all, if he had only stood up for the woman, unless he brought her back to Ningguo Province and protected her, she would have suffered in the end. After all, the woman's family was there. If he could make trouble for her once, he could do it again. Next time, she might not be so lucky as to be saved by him.
"You can scold them, but it's wrong to hit them. What if the Nan 'an Commandery Prince is ruthless and kills their distant relative? So what if the fake goods are with you? Even if you send them to the doctor and the doctor says that they are fine, if they are dead, there will be no evidence. Even if there is a doctor's testimony, he will say that you found the doctor to give false testimony." Xia Lu glared at the Jia Zhen. In fact, she understood that the Jia Zhen hadn't experienced the decline of the Rong and Ning Manors. Although he was good at scheming, he still lacked a grasp of people's hearts. He wouldn't think of people in the worst way. Of course, he was afraid of the women around her.
"Right, why didn't I think of that?" The Jia Zhen patted his head. Sure enough, he was impulsive again.
"But it doesn't matter. The Nan 'an Commandery Prince's Mansion definitely doesn't want to fall out with our family at this time. When the time comes, they will definitely send gifts to apologize. If the person dies, then it will really fall out. The Nan' an Commandery Prince shouldn't be so stupid."
"Then I'm relieved. Next time, I won't let anyone hit them," the Jia Zhen said.
"Are you stupid? If someone hits you and you don't fight back, then they will hit you." Xia Lu rolled her eyes at the Jia Zhen. Why did this guy suddenly become so stupid? He was usually very alert when he was jealous. It was because her father-in-law's two concubines came to her twice. After all, she brought them back from Jinling and gave them to her father-in-law to be his concubines. Therefore, the two concubines were actually somewhat dependent on her. In the end, this guy directly came out and warned the two concubines not to come to her if there was nothing important. They could go directly to the steward.
"Then what should I do?" the Jia Zhen asked.
"No matter what, you didn't hit them first. If something really happened, it would be considered as legitimate self-defense. It's just that you didn't control your strength well." Xia Lu's lips curled into an evil smile. This was what she learned from a certain Korean country. First, they provoked you. If you really couldn't wait to hit them, then they would fall into their trap. Then, they would announce this matter to the world and pretend that they were the victims.
"Okay." The Jia Zhen nodded and looked at Xia Lu with a smile. He liked the mischievous look in his wife's eyes. She was full of evil tricks and scheming against others. In the past, she was scheming against him. That feeling was indescribable. Now that she was scheming against others, it felt great.
Xia Lu looked at the Jia Zhen nodding obediently and smiled. Suddenly, she thought of the Third Princess and the Fifth Princess. She said, "Today, the Third Princess asked me to split the 10% bonus I gave her into two and give the other to the Fifth Princess. The Third Princess and the Fifth Princess are really close." It was really rare to be born in the royal family to have such a relationship.
"The Fifth Princess saved the Third Princess's life before, so the Third Princess treats the Fifth Princess especially well." The Jia Zhen told her about the relationship between the Third Princess and the Fifth Princess. "Back then, the Third Princess was still young. At that time, the world was not completely peaceful yet. There was an organization among the people that wanted to revive the previous dynasty. A female assassin sneaked into the palace and kidnapped the Third Princess. Later, the assassin threw the Third Princess into the pond in the imperial garden. The Fifth Princess was playful and happened to see it. She quickly found someone to rescue the Third Princess.
The two of them formed a bond. "" I see. "Xia Lu nodded. The Fifth Princess had saved her life, so she naturally had to repay it. Most importantly, she had interacted with the Fifth Princess for a while. This person was indeed kind. Otherwise, even if it was a life-saving grace, the Third Princess would have used other ways to repay it instead of wasting time and energy on the Fifth Princess.
