"Not planning to accept business?" Jing Zhe could not help but ask, "Then what to eat?"
"It seems that he is preparing to leave." Shen Miao muttered, "Then is there any news that Jin Xingming has recently left?"
Mo Qing was startled for a moment before saying, "Furen's guess is correct. He also sold some things and converted them into banknotes. It seems that he is going on a long journey and had prepared a large amount of money."
Shen Miao understood, "Go and check again to see if this Jin Xingming has any recent connections with anyone. Also some clothes that he prepared. Clues can be seen as to where he is going and the things that he prepared for travel. A short journey is still a long journey, the Northern land is still the Southern country. If there are people that are close to him, pay more attention. Also do not relax the investigation on Ye Mei siblings. If Jin Xingxing and Ye Mei have private dealings, one must follow. "
Mo Qing received the orders and left.
Jing Zhe and Gu Yu were sewing clothes under the lamp when Gu Yu said, "Furen, but what relationship does that Ye family's Young Lady have with the son of a merchant? Could it be that she is fond of that Young Master Jin, so she did not even care about the other's merchant identity and insisted on being together with him? "
Shen Miao gently smiled and shook her head, "Do you know about rattan grass?"
"This servant knows." When Jing Zhe heard it, she quickly said, "When this servant lived in the countryside, there were rattan grass everywhere in the courtyard. Once spring arrives, one must pull them out one by one. If they were not pulled out, they would entangle the other trees to death."
Shen Miao said, "Ye Mei is very much like that rattan grass." Ye Mei was very much like rattan grass. This rattan grass had a strong vitality and was everywhere. The most important thing was that any man could become her 'tree' and she would rely on these trees to climb upwards, absorbing the sunlight and rain, growing tenaciously until she climbed to the tallest one.
And in the process of her growth, those trees would be entangled by her until they were exhausted of their nutrients and finally died.
Jing Zhe and Gu Yu looked at each other in dismay. After a long while, Jing Zhe softly said, "Is she that powerful?"
"This kind of rattan grass looks very strong at first glance but there is a fatal characteristic." Shen Miao said, "Once her last 'tree' dies, there would be no other things that could provide her with nutrients and she would follow along."
"What to rely on, would be the most miserable when it is finally taken away." She said.
There was no doubt that Ye Mei wanted something from Jin Xingming. As the son of a merchant, since he had finished his business everywhere and seemed to be leaving, it was obvious that Ye Mei wanted to board Xing Xingming's boat and leave the abyss of the Ye family.
But how would Shen Miao let her wish come true?
Ye Mei's ending, this time let Shen Miao decide it for her.
…
For a few days, Xie Jing Xing did not return to the residence. Even Tie Yi was not around. When she asked Cong Yang, he did not know anything. She felt that the guards in the fu were even busier than usual.
Not long after, a piece of news came from the capital. The former General Zhennan, Lu Zhengchun, led his troops in rebellion. He stationed his troops in Ruyang City and occupied the city as a prison. He was officially opposing the royal family.
This news shocked the people of Long Ye. They had heard that Lu Zhengchun already had many soldiers under him. In addition, he had been secretly recruiting soldiers and buying horses for so many years, expanding his military strength. Ruyang City was vast to begin with, so it was surprising that he could occupy it so easily. The Lu family indeed had the courage to go against the royal family.
The Shen family's guards that Shen Miao brought over were somewhat bewildered but Shen Miao was neither fast nor slow. There was an ancient saying that first suppress then raise. Most likely Xie Jing Xing and Emperor Yong Le wanted to do this. First let the Lu family have a taste of sweetness. Lu Zhengchun, that kind of martial artist, would naturally feel that the Imperial family was afraid of him and would lower their guard and become more arrogant. This would then allow the Imperial family to make better arrangements and catch the Lu family in one fell swoop.
