The two Daoist priests came and stood guard outside the door. Third Young Master and Chu Xiang went in circles. When Chu Xiang was about to lose her patience, Third Young Master finally said, "I heard that Lady Boss is very good at divination. I have a half-brother who has gone missing. I wonder if Lady Boss could help me divine where he is now? Is he well? "
Chu Xiang could indeed predict. She carefully looked at San Gongzi's face and exclaimed, "Eh?"
San Gongzi asked with interest, "How is it? Is it finally out? "
Chu Xiang frowned slightly, "Why can't I tell your face?"
San Gongzi laughed, "I know a few Taoist priests. I heard that … only close people can't tell from their faces. Could it be that you and I are fated?"
Chu Xiang had met many people. She knew what he wanted to do when he was cocky. However, even if this person was good-looking, this kind of person who casually flirted with a married woman was too despicable!
Chu Xiang did not respond to his words. She poured a few drops of tea on the table and used another method to predict his fortune. However, it was still to no avail. She waved her hand to make the table clean and said with a smile, "It seems that I can't do business with you. You should find someone else. I still have some accounts to check, so I'll take my leave. The tea here is not bad. Enjoy it. "
Chu Xiang stood up and was about to leave. San Gongzi hurriedly reached out to stop her, "Eh? Why are you leaving? It's okay if you can't predict it. It's rare that I have time today. Lady boss, are you willing to accompany me to the lake to drink tea? "
"I'm afraid that's not appropriate."
"Why is it inappropriate? You and I are fated. If we part now, it would be a pity. " San Gongzi rarely came out to have fun. He had to go back before dusk. Naturally, he did not want to let go of this opportunity.
He looked at Chu Xiang's face and could not help but have some thoughts. All the women in his backyard paled in comparison to Chu Xiang. A beauty like Chu Xiang could only enter his backyard. How could others deserve to have her?
Chu Xiang glanced at him. She did not move, but in the blink of an eye, she was at the door. When the man in blue saw this, he hurriedly said, "Two Taoist masters, please stop her!"
The two Daoist priests outside the door answered and entered. At the same time, they moved to stop Chu Xiang. Chu Xiang's smile faded. She turned to look at Third Young Master. "Young Master, what do you mean?"
The Third Young Master calmly returned to his seat, fanning himself with his folding fan. "Naturally, I want to continue this fate with the Lady Boss."
The man in blue walked over to Chu Xiang and said, "Lady Boss, Third Young Master has never valued any woman so much. You are the first. You've worked hard to take care of the teahouse and show your face in public. There must be a lot of bitterness. If you have Third Young Master to take care of you, your glory, splendor, wealth, and rank will be inexhaustible. It wouldn't be too much even if you were to fly to the top of a branch. If you hit it off with the Third Young Master, you might have even greater opportunities in the future. "
"Oh?" Chu Xiang thought it was funny. She usually stayed in the teahouse to read the accounts and storybooks. She did not show her face in public, so she was too lazy to change her appearance. She just used her original appearance. Naturally, she was a national beauty. She did not expect that her appearance would attract such trouble. If she was an ordinary woman, wouldn't it be a disaster?
However, she was too lazy to pay attention to them. Getting entangled with the rich and powerful was the most annoying thing. Chu Xiang waved her hand and closed the door of the private room. They were frozen in place before they could react. She walked in front of the Third Young Master with her hands behind her back. She reached out and touched his face. "Your face is not tender enough, your temper is not good enough, and your body is not good enough. You want to warm my bed? Where does your confidence come from? "
The Third Young Master widened his eyes. He was shocked and angry, but he could not move. "What did you do? Let me go! Otherwise, I … "
Chu Xiang moved her finger. He could not even speak. The others were the same. Chu Xiang looked at them. She used the same method as Bai Yi to make them forget about her. Then she easily left the private room and called for them to come back to their senses.
The Third Young Master saw the two Daoist priests. He only remembered that he asked them to come here to ask about his missing brother. He looked at them and asked impatiently, "Did you find any clues?"
The two Daoist priests shook their heads. "Third Young Master, he was too good at covering his tracks. It was really difficult to find him. But he was already seriously injured at the time …"
"Enough. If he is alive, I want to see him. If he is dead, I want to see his corpse!" The Third Young Master did not listen to their excuses. He interrupted them and left with a flick of his sleeve.
The blue-clothed man followed closely behind. He asked if the Third Young Master wanted to go somewhere else to pass the time. Then the guard and the two Daoist priests also left. From beginning to end, no one remembered that they had seen Chu Xiang.
Chu Xiang had long thrown them to the back of her mind when she checked the accounts. He was just a playboy. What did he have to do with her?
Near dusk, the Third Young Master returned to the palace. At the palace gate, he met Prince Qi who was about to return home. When Prince Qi saw him, he frowned. "Where did you go? Imperial Father just lifted your confinement. Don't make him angry again. "
The Third Young Master, who was also the Third Prince, waved his folding fan and smiled. "Second Brother, don't worry. I just went out for a walk and drank some tea."
"Huh?" A white-haired Daoist priest behind Prince Qi looked at the Third Prince with a puzzled expression.
Prince Qi and the Third Prince looked at him at the same time. Prince Qi said seriously, "Is there anything wrong?"
The Daoist priest slowly walked around the Third Prince and carefully examined him. After a while, he said with a dignified expression, "The Third Prince has a strong demonic aura. Someone cast a spell on him. Third Prince, where did you go today?"
The Third Prince was shocked. "I, I didn't go anywhere. I just went to a restaurant to eat. Then, then I went to find your two disciples to drink tea at the teahouse. I asked them to divine whether that person was dead or not. They didn't know. I went to the antique street and then came back."
The Daoist priest looked at the demonic aura around the Third Prince thoughtfully. "Could it be that there's something wrong with the antiques?"
Prince Qi asked in a low voice, "Why did you ask the Daoist priest's disciples? Even the Daoist priest couldn't find the person. How could his disciples? "
The Third Prince was stunned. "That's right. Why did I look for them?"
Prince Qi glanced at Prince Qi. The Daoist priest nodded and said, "It should have been done by a demon. Prince Qi, this demon is not an ordinary one. Let me examine the Third Prince carefully."
"Okay. Then Third Prince, you will come to my residence today. I will go to Imperial Father."
"Okay, okay. Daoist priest, you must investigate thoroughly. How dare he do something to me. I want him to die without a complete corpse and scatter his soul!"
The Daoist priest didn't refute. He tacitly agreed with the Third Prince's words. He left the palace with him and asked him about the details of his trip. Prince Qi also ordered people to find the blue clothed man and investigate the Third Prince's whereabouts.
Chu Xiang didn't know that someone wanted to investigate her. She opened a lot of shops and checked half of the accounts. Then she made some new expansion plans. She called the shopkeepers of each shop for a meeting and arranged their affairs. She was busy until dusk.
Chu Xiang got up and moved her body. Bai Yi ran upstairs.
"Sister, are you done?"
"I just finished. What's wrong? In a hurry. "Chu Xiang motioned her to sit down and asked someone to make a pot of tea.
Bai Yi anxiously said, "Elder sister, did you hear? There's a flood in the south. I don't know which corrupt official took the disaster relief funds. Now, the people there are suffering and suffering. Many people have already died!"
Chu Xiang didn't pay attention to this news. "Who did you listen to?"
"I, ahem, I passed by the Jiang family after seeing a patient today, so I went in to take a look. I happened to hear that Magistrate Jiang was talking to the head of the Jiang family in the capital in the study room. They seemed to be suppressed by some Prince of Qi. That Prince of Qi might be the next emperor.
"You don't want to hear about the fight for the throne?" Chu Xiang smiled. "Don't get involved in this kind of thing. It's deep. Don't tell me … you want to go to the south? "
Bai Yi nodded and said, "The first thing I thought of after hearing it was to save people. Bai You also thought so. He is more anxious than me. He used to like to practice medicine and save people. The people there need doctors and medicine the most now. I want to send all the medicine in my pharmacy there. I also want to see it in person. Bai You and his people not only lack medicine and doctors, but also rice. These corrupt officials deserve to die. They are much more ruthless than us monsters! "
Chu Xiang held her chin and said, "Of course. Not all people are good. Some are vicious. To use a human saying, they are worse than pigs and dogs. Have you thought about how to talk to Zhuang Liushi? If you want to go, I can give you a sum of money from the shop for you to buy medicine and rice. Remember, money can't come out of thin air. If someone investigates, they will know that your money came from an unknown source. The money from running the shop is different. You have to be careful at all times. "
"I know, sister. As for Zhuang Liushi and Brother Zhuang … Only I go back to my hometown to worship the ancestors? Let me think of an excuse. I can't leave right away. There are a few seriously ill people here. Bai You can ask the escort agency to send the supplies there first. When we are done here, we can catch up. "
"En. Since the imperial family wants to suppress this matter, it must involve a lot of people. Before you do anything, ask Bai You first. Don't be rash and don't be too high-profile. Otherwise, your supplies may not be able to enter the disaster area."
Chu Xiang had transmigrated into the Cold Palace as an abandoned concubine in her previous life. She was also very familiar with disaster relief. She told Bai Yi a lot of things to pay attention to, and Bai Yi remembered them carefully. Now, Bai Yi didn't doubt that Chu Xiang knew so much. Chu Xiang was always busy, and Li Yufeng was still Bai Xiaosheng. She only felt that maybe when she was worried about Zhuang Yulang, Chu Xiang had already learned everything in the world.
This made her feel that she had wasted the past few months. It was better to be like Chu Xiang. She worshipped Chu Xiang even more. She was also clearer about her future. If she had the time to worry about gains and losses, it was better to learn from Chu Xiang and do more things that made her happy.
After Chu Xiang finished telling her, she anxiously called the shopkeepers of the various shops and told them about donating to the disaster relief. The people employed in these shops were almost all people she met in the process of sponsoring students. They were all promoted by her and were loyal to her. They admired her kindness very much. When they heard that she was going to donate to the disaster relief again, no one objected. They all gave ideas and actively cooperated with Chu Xiang's decision to come up with the latest business plan.
The wind gradually started to blow above the capital. The situation had unknowingly changed. In the imperial temple outside the city, a white-browed and white-bearded senior monk sighed at the elephant. "Amitabha! The North Star moves and the stars gather. The Great Xia Dynasty … has changed in the end. Two stars shine together and strange phenomena occur. I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing … "
