Chapter 202 No Credit Allowed
Xie Ningxin cried for a while in the room, and her emotions were almost released.
With a loud "bang," she pulled the door open.
"Father, you must seek justice for your daughter..."
Xie Ningxin finally opened the door.
Then look at her red and swollen eyes from crying.
Xie Jinan said with heartache, "Alright, alright, tomorrow I will definitely give Lu Hanting a good talking-to."
No, you shouldn't implicate him.
"Go to the palace now and beg the Empress Dowager to grant us a marriage!"
"This……"
It has to be said that the father and daughter have the same thought process.
He had just thought that when his daughter spoke up.
Upon seeing the father and daughter, Han pressed her hand to her forehead again.
“Xin’er, Lu Hanting doesn’t want to marry you.”
"You're so eager to marry him, even if you do, he won't treat you well in the future!"
"Mother, I don't care, I want to marry Lu Hanting."
She looked at her father stubbornly.
"Father, go to the palace now and beg my aunt to arrange a marriage between me and Lu Hanting."
If she doesn't want to, I might as well die...
As he spoke, the door slammed shut again with a loud bang.
This time, they even bolted the door shut inside.
This……
I could hear the sounds of bottles and jars shattering inside.
Xie Jinan exclaimed in alarm, "Xin'er, don't do anything rash! Father will be there right away."
"Enter the palace immediately!"
Xie Jinan instructed his wife to keep a close watch on their daughter, fearing she might find the dagger.
royal palace.
The Empress Dowager listened to Xie Jinan's request.
She rubbed her forehead.
"Jin'an, do you think Commander Lu is someone you can manipulate at will?"
Go back!
Even if I were to arrange a marriage between him and Xin'er, I doubt he would comply.
"Queen Mother..."
"how?"
Empress Dowager Xie looked at him.
If it weren't for the fact that he was her closest relative, she would have driven him away long ago.
Xie Jinan knew his aunt's temperament well.
Kexin'er was his precious daughter, and also someone the Empress Dowager had watched and doted on since she was a child.
He didn't believe the Empress Dowager would disregard Xin'er's life or death.
Xie Jinan said with difficulty, "You know Xin'er's temper. I, as her father, can't do anything about her."
She just said that if I fail to obtain the imperial decree, I'm afraid I'll return to find her corpse...
"presumptuous!"
The Empress Dowager said angrily.
She actually dared to threaten me with death.
Xie Jinan was trembling.
Although the Empress Dowager had doted on him when he was young, he was also afraid of her since childhood.
There was silence for a moment.
All that could be heard was the Empress Dowager's helpless voice.
"Let me think about it. You should go back first!"
Although the Xie family mansion was not short of people, all the male members of those branches were male.
Xie Ningxin is the only girl among the younger generation, and she was born with a silver spoon in her mouth.
Because she often went to the palace to accompany the Empress Dowager when she was young, the Empress Dowager doted on and spoiled her.
Ugh!
There's still time, let's take a look first!
Phoenix Palace.
"Granny Ying, will His Majesty be staying at Qingfeng Palace again tonight?"
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Today is the fifteenth.
According to ancestral custom, on the first and fifteenth of each lunar month, the emperor should rest in the Empress's Phoenix Palace.
Consort Kelian has recently used some unknown trick.
She so captivated the emperor that he became so infatuated with her that he forgot all about the rules.
"Has there been any news from Duke Chen in the past two days?"
"Your Majesty, I heard that the person is already on the way and should arrive in the capital in the next two days."
"very good……"
The Empress's eyes held a cold smile; she feared that in a few days, that vile Consort Lian would no longer be able to act so arrogantly.
"By the way, I heard she's been enjoying leaving the palace lately."
"I heard it's for some project at Weiyuan. Have your brother check it out."
Could the Emperor's recent infatuation with her be related to the projects she's been working on outside the palace...?
"Yes, Your Majesty, I will have Xiao Linzi speak with the Master."
Two days later.
Wu Weiwei's Jade Butterfly Garden Beauty Salon has finally opened for business.
I don't know if it was just a coincidence.
On the same day that Wu Weiwei announced her grand opening, Weiyuan's medicinal cuisine restaurant also opened its doors.
On the opening day of both stores, He Yuyan relied on the comfort pills she had presented on the old lady's birthday.
It garnered attention from many people in Beijing.
Among them were many noble ladies and elderly women of high social standing.
According to Lingfu, the entrance to Weiyuan is almost bursting at the seams.
Wu Weiwei sat in her office, listening to the news Xiao Shitou reported.
She felt nothing.
"Just do what you're supposed to do, don't worry about anything else!"
The more He Yuyan is praised today, the harder she will fall once her scandal is exposed.
"By the way, have you found the storyteller I asked you to?"
"Go back to your employer, you've already found someone."
"We're just waiting for your command, and then all sorts of rumors about Wei Garden will be circulating everywhere..."
"well-done."
After Xiao Shitou left, Wu Weiwei sorted out the accounts in her hands.
A moment later, Fat Tuo knocked on the door and came in.
"Master, I have something to report to you..."
"Say!"
Wu Weiwei didn't even look up.
"Here's the thing, my team received a cooperation order from Weiyuan."
"Do you think we should cooperate with them?"
Wei Garden?
Wu Weiwei looked up.
"Is it from He Yuyan's shop?"
"Yes, she bought medicinal herbs with us."
Looking at her prescription, it seems she needs a large amount of ephedra, coptis, and ginseng.
And she's also recently been acquiring Tianqi...
Wu Weiwei listened and fell into deep thought.
If she wasn't mistaken, the female lead was thinking...
"Is she trying to develop our An Sheng Bao Ji Pill?"
Fat Tuo was surprised.
"It certainly seems that way."
"Master, could it be that she deciphered and cracked our prescription?"
Wu Weiwei thought for a moment, then shook her head.
"No, she doesn't have that ability yet."
Although the female lead has some medical skills, she is not yet proficient enough.
It took Granny Mei and Sister Chen so long of research and study to finally crack it.
With the female lead's limited abilities, she couldn't possibly have such methods.
Wu Weiwei looked at Pang Tuo.
unless……
"She has our prescription."
Wu Weiwei nodded.
"Regardless of whether she obtained our prescription or not."
You know one thing: the proportions in the recipe are important.
If not handled properly, it could end up like the poison pill Rong Sheng made, ultimately costing the lives of the entire clan.
Fat Tuo scratched his head and chuckled, "I understand."
"Sir, should we sell these medicinal herbs to her?"
"Sell, of course we have to sell."
Since there's business to be done, why don't we do it?
However, you must remember one thing: do business with He Yuyan.
Make sure she pays a prepayment when ordering, and settles the balance in full when picking up the goods.
"We at Jade Butterfly Garden do not offer credit."
Nobody knows how long she can hold out for that.
I can't let her owe me a single penny.
Now that Lu Hanting is back, she can still do some underhanded things in private.
But he can't let him know that he's voluntarily gotten involved in the female lead's affairs.
She still needs him now, so she can't expose herself prematurely.
Wu Weiwei had just returned to the Marquis's residence, her feet hadn't even touched the ground yet.
Then they heard He Yuyan outside say happily, "Your Highness, I tried the medicine you gave me a couple of days ago..."
