Chapter 154: direct

Jiang Xuening called Liu Yang in, and lowered her voice to explain something.

Liu Yang was dumbfounded.

Jiang Xuening only smiled lightly and said: "Even if someone wants to put all their eggs in one basket, I guess others may not make her wish, so just do as I tell you."

After Lu Xian sold 10,000 silver shares, Ren's Salt Factory immediately collapsed, and the price of the silver shares fell like a cliff.

Eight hundred texts, seven hundred texts...

On the sixth day, even the first five hundred wen were gone, leaving only four hundred wen.

Mrs. Uncle almost shed tears in the mansion: "I told you earlier that what a lady is doing is not good, why bother with this worthless thing? She won't listen to people's advice if something happens. Throwing it away, why did you end up in such a situation! Yue'er, uncle is already mad at you, so just listen to your mother. The time to choose the princess is coming, don't go on like this..."

In the room, You Yue sat in a daze.

She stared fixedly at the contracts and certificates of the silver stock transaction in the box in front of her. She couldn't sleep all day long, so her eyes were bloodshot, and she looked a little hideous.

She turned a deaf ear to Mrs. Uncle's words.

It's just that I don't know how many times I asked the maid beside me: "Is there any new news?"

The servant girls are also in a panic these days. The people in the mansion see that You Yue is not quite right these days, and they dare not go against her wishes. They send people to the Shuxiang Inn to inquire about it almost every half hour. Latest news.

But there is no new news yet.

The servant girl was trembling, her voice was as thin as a gnat: "No, not yet."

You Yue's expression sharpened suddenly, she stood up and slapped the servant **** the face, and scolded: "It's been an hour, and I haven't come back yet, what are you doing?"

Half of the servant girl's face turned red immediately.

Mrs. Uncle exclaimed: "You are crazy, what are you going to do? What does it have to do with the maids in the back house if other people come back? You are really obsessed with ghosts, Yue'er, it's only a few thousand taels of silver. Let it go, let it go? If you choose the princess of Linzi, wouldn't the glory and wealth in the future be within your fingertips?"

Xiao had thought about this position in the past, but now Mrs. Uncle's words are extremely harsh to her ears, and it even stimulates her heart that has been hit hard these days, making her extremely disgusted.

She sneered, "Is it that easy?"

Mrs. Uncle was stunned.

But You Yue said viciously: "All the ladies and ladies in the capital have to choose. There is Xiao Shu on the top, and Jiang Xuehui on the bottom! How rich are other people's houses, what is our house like? If even this little money is gone, I will I can’t even make a good deal of it, even if I choose it, it’s a joke for others!”

Seeing that the person from the mansion who went to inquire about the news had not come back, she couldn't wait any longer, so she ignored Mrs. Uncle's obstruction, locked the box with the contract on the table, but put the key into her bosom herself, and then yelled loudly : "Get me a carriage!"

Mrs. Uncle asked: "What are you doing?"

You Yue said without turning her head: "I want to go to the inn to see for myself, you deliberately keep me from knowing the news, don't think about it!"

She is used to domineering in the mansion, since she was selected to study in Yangzhizhai as a companion, even her elder sister You Shuang in the mansion would be a head shorter than her, so the servants had no choice but to prepare a carriage for her even though it was difficult for her, lest she would suffer. her beating.

Mrs. Uncle called her from behind and she didn't listen at all.

When the carriage was leaving the mansion, a tall and strong young man rode his horse and stopped at the gate of the mansion. You Yue must ask this person's identity in normal times. But now the whole person seemed to be stupefied. He only glanced at him and then glanced over, urging the coachman to drive to the Shuxiang Inn.

These days, the price of silver shares in Ren's Saltworks has been falling all the way, and even nine bulls can't be pulled back. At the beginning, there were still many people watching the fun. But after falling for a long time, it's not surprising, just think that the salt farm is abolished, and those who bought silver stocks are ruined.

So You Yue originally thought that there wouldn't be many people when the day came.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he got off the carriage, he heard voices in the inn, which was quite lively.

"I really didn't expect that who would have the guts to take the ten thousand silver shares at such a juncture?"

"It's all down to 300 Wen, no one cares about it!"

"Isn't there a rumor that the saltworks are being rebuilt in the middle of Sichuan? It's just that Ren Weizhi figured out what Zhuotongjing was, which made the surrounding saltworks jealous. Zhuo Tongjing was willing to help, otherwise he would have to block it. I don’t think Ren’s Salt Farm is worth much, but Zhuo Tongjing is probably worth a little more. It’s not a bad loss to buy this for three hundred yuan a share!”

"But once this method is told to others, it will be worthless..."

"Yeah, who is so courageous?"

"Maybe you have money and nowhere to spend it?"

When You Yue heard this outside, her heart skipped a beat, and for a moment she completely forgot that she was still a reserved lady. When she went in, she asked the person who had just spoken, "Someone bought Boss Lu's 10,000 shares?" ?”

Most of the inns are old men, but I didn't expect a girl to pop out.

Just looking up, this girl's facial features are pretty, but her expression is a bit paranoid and fierce, her red eyes are staring, her teeth are clenched tightly, making people feel chills in their hearts.

The man saw that she was not dressed like an ordinary person, so he didn't dare to neglect her.

Immediately replied: "Someone bought it, but I don't know who is behind it. It happened just an hour ago. But some time ago, the silver shares were worth 15,000 taels, but now they are only sold for 3,000 taels. The boss has lost a lot of money in this business."

You Yue's heartbeat suddenly accelerated.

A glimmer of secret hope rose up: as long as someone is willing to buy, the price of silver stocks may be stabilized, and it may even go up!

"Boss, upstairs is the spare room."

She roughly calculated that according to the previous habits of Ren's Saltworks, the definite news from the saltworks should have come today at the latest. No matter what, she couldn't stay at the mansion and listen, so she might as well come and wait in person.

So he frowned and spoke to the shopkeeper next to the counter.

The shopkeeper couldn't help being startled: "My lady, there are so many people here today, the private room upstairs is gone."

You Yue frowned suddenly, and saw that there was clearly a private room upstairs with the door and window open, which looked charming, so she sneered: "I am the concubine of the Qingyuan uncle's mansion, can't you even move out of a private room here? "

The people are afraid of officials, let alone the shopkeeper is a businessman?

He also looked up at the empty private room, but he was very embarrassed: "Girl, the private room upstairs was reserved by another girl long ago, since business is all about honesty, I really can't make the decision. "

You Yue glanced around, raised her chin lightly, and said disdainfully: "All you come and go here are traffickers and pawns, this girl thinks highly of your boundaries! Whoever made the reservation can ask him to come out, I guess he will Dare not be dissatisfied."

The faces of the "peddlers" around couldn't help but change.

Even the shopkeeper's expression turned ugly.

At this moment, a clear smile suddenly came from outside: "Why is Miss You even grabbing the private room I reserved?"

You Yue's complexion suddenly changed, and her whole body tensed up.

Even though she was reluctant, when she turned her head, she still saw the face that made her hate it - Jiang Xuening!

Recently, the palace is preparing to choose a concubine and get married, and the companions no longer need to enter the palace, so You Yue hasn't seen Jiang Xuening for quite a while.

Seeing it again, I really feel dazzled.

As the weather started to warm up, she wore a light yellow pleated skirt and a spring shirt that was thin, which made her slender waist, jet black and fluffy with crow feathers, and her figure was slender and fit. The slap on the face is even more beautiful, and the eyes are flowing, which only makes people feel ashamed.

A little behind her was actually followed by another person, who was the Prince Dingfei whom he met once in the palace.

She is rich and elegant, with a pair of evil eyes that seduce people.

People stood beside Jiang Xuening, and if one ignored the playful smirk on his lips, one would feel that the man is talented and the beauty is extremely seductive.

The two of them entered the inn one after the other, and others did not know that they were familiar with each other.

When You Yue saw it, she immediately scolded in her heart: "A lewd man and a woman!"

She and Jiang Xuening have had a deep feud, so she doesn't owe this a little bit, but she has heard about Xiao Dingfei's actions during his return to Beijing, so he doesn't dare to make mistakes.

Today, Jiang Xuening was uncharacteristically, and smiled at her kindly, as if she had nothing to do with her, and said: "It's rare to meet in this kind of place, and I also have good friends with Fangyin, and I am a little worried about her situation in Sichuan. , so I came here to wait for the news. Since Miss You didn't find Yajian, if you don't mind, why don't you come with me?"

What medicine did Jiang Xuening take wrongly today?

This was the first thought that popped into You Yue's head.

She became vigilant and didn't believe it at all. On the contrary, she lost her thoughts about Ya Jian, and said with a sneer, "Who doesn't know that Miss Jiang Er has thousands of ways to harm people? I can't bear it."

Jiang Xuening planned that now Liu Yang was in the uncle's mansion persuading Uncle Qingyuan to count the four thousand shares in You Yue's hands, but she couldn't be allowed to go back at this time, and spoil things over there.

So when I changed my mind, I wanted to use a radical method.

But just when she was about to speak, the corner of her eye flickered, and she suddenly caught a glimpse of the figure walking in from the door, and she forgot what she had said before she could say it, feeling a little separated from the world for a moment.

He doesn't seem to like to wear that official uniform, he only wears a boring and rigid dark blue robe, even if his eyes don't pass by people's faces, there is a bit more solemnity than ordinary people.

Cold as a rock, silent as a cold pool.

The long knife-like eyebrows are slightly lowered, and a long finger is exposed from the simple and wide sleeve robe, holding a roll of paper.

When he saw Jiang Xuening, he also saw Xiao Dingfei who was standing quite close to her. He paused, but still walked in, followed by two guards.

The shopkeeper was taken aback.

He hurriedly came out from behind the counter, cupped his hands and bowed: "Oh, what's the matter that the labor dispatch man come here in person?"

It is difficult for the people in the market to see the official, and the shopkeeper naturally cannot recognize Zhang Zhe.

But he didn't reveal his identity, he just unfolded the roll of paper in his hand, and asked the shopkeeper to take a closer look: "The person in the portrait, has he been to your store recently?"

The shopkeeper looked carefully, shook his head and said: "If it looks like this, the villain will definitely remember it, and I have no impression at all."

Zhang Zhe frowned slightly.

The two guards were whispering something to him.

But he was silent, he just put away the portrait, thanked the shopkeeper, and walked outside the inn.

At that moment, the distance was not far away, but Jiang Xuening felt that this person seemed to be in the sky, and suddenly she was a little out of control, thinking: He clearly saw me, but he didn't seem to recognize me.

You Yue can remember clearly that she and Jiang Xuening initially had an enmity because of a quarrel related to Zhang Zhe. When she saw Zhang Zhe coming in, she froze for a moment, and then subconsciously looked at Jiang Xuening's expression.

Seeing that the cover came in, she didn't seem to know Jiang Xuening, she almost immediately covered her lips and smiled.

While taking pleasure in other's misfortune, the sarcasm blurted out: "Tsk, I thought that the second girl Jiang was in love with Mr. Zhang, but it turned out that she was shameless and hot, and she posted it! No wonder, I heard that Mr. Zhang is not a disciple. Son, how can you talk to some women who are fidgety and showy!"

As she spoke, she also looked at Xiao Dingfei pointingly, the contempt and hints in her words were already clear.

Jiang Xuening felt unreasonable restlessness in her heart.

Under the eyes of everyone, she slapped You Yue's face without mercy!

"Snapped!"

There was a crisp sound.

The whole downstairs teahouse was suddenly quiet, everyone was dumbfounded, and looked towards Jiang Xuening with some degree of shock.

Xiao Dingfei's face tightened even more when he heard it, he never expected that he would have such a chilling side when looking at a soft and beautiful beauty, so he couldn't help shivering.

You Yue covered her face in a daze for a moment before she yelled: "Jiang Xuening, you bitch!"

Jiang Xuening gave her a cold look, but without saying a word, turned around and walked out of the inn.

If she hadn't seen Zhang Zhe just now, she might hold back and deal with You Yue at such a special moment of closing the net just now. But Zhang Zhe only appeared for a moment, and her mind was messed up.

She knew that if she went out at this time, she was afraid that there would be rumors spreading in Beijing tomorrow.

Can-

She even secretly plotted to force Xiao Shu to have a kiss, so what is a little gossip that can neither kill her nor change her heart?

Jiang Xuening doesn't care!

She walked in a hurry, and chased after Zhang Zhe, and when she got close, she called out to his back: "Master Zhang!"

Zhang Zhe stopped and turned around.

The two guards following him turned their heads in surprise, and couldn't help being stunned when they saw Jiang Xuening, and their hesitant eyes turned to Zhang Zhe.

Zhang Zhe remained silent.

Jiang Xuening didn't care about the eyes of others at all, as if those two guards didn't exist at all, she straightened her back and stood in front of him, without hiding her feelings, she asked directly: "Did Mr. Zhang receive the things I gave on New Year's Eve?" ?"

The eyes of the two guards were shocked.
