After traveling through time, I married the prince by signing in

Chapter 327 Parents' Orders and Matchmaker's Words

Pei Qiu didn't expect that Qin He Chamber of Commerce was his master!

When he heard Yuanman's question, he immediately put away his surprise and repeated what he had said to the shopkeeper before.

"So, it's better to deal with this grass as soon as possible."

"Is it useful to you?" Yuan Man asked.

Pei Qiu nodded, "Of course, I have been looking for this Nine-fold Grass for a long time. It is rare to come across it, so naturally I want it."

Yuan Man looked at Cao Jing and asked, "Cao Jing, can I give him this grass?"

Cao Jing nodded immediately, "Of course you can. Even if you don't give it to this young master, I will deal with it later. After all, it is a poisonous weed and is not suitable to be placed here."

"Thank you very much, Manager Cao." Pei Qiu picked up the Nine-Fold Grass and left the Qinhe Chamber of Commerce.

When Cao Jing saw him enter the opposite side, he couldn't help but murmured, "He is actually the person on the opposite side."

Yuan Man raised his eyebrows and asked, "What's wrong with the people across the street? Is there something wrong with that house?"

Cao Jing shook his head. "It's not that there's something wrong with the house. It's that the wife of the prime minister chose this house as a dowry for her second daughter, but she couldn't find the owner of the house."

Yuan Man raised his eyebrows and nodded, "This house is mine. If you encounter any problems, you can go find me across the street. I will stay in Ningcheng during this period of time."

Cao Jing nodded and smiled: "Yes."

"By the way, this is a residential area, why open a store here?" Yuanman asked the question in his mind.

Cao Jing smiled and said, "This isn't really a store. These things are not for sale in the Qinhe Chamber of Commerce."

"The Qinhe Chamber of Commerce has forty-four shops in various places. Naturally, there are many fine products among the items collected, and then everything will be collected here."

Yuanman looked at the things displayed here, and they were all good things.

"Everything is laid out here, aren't you afraid someone will come and steal it?"

Cao Jing laughed and said, "Of course we are not afraid. First, the guards of our Qinhe Chamber of Commerce are not vegetarians. Second, Ningcheng is the capital of Zhao State, and the protection fee we pay every year is as high as tens of thousands of taels. We are protected by the government."

Yuan Man raised his eyebrows after hearing this. This was a very clever move.

Seeing her looking at a jade Buddha, Cao Jing said, "Master, if you like anything, just tell me and I'll bring it to you."

"No, I don't need these. You are busy, I'll go back first." After Yuanman said this, he called Yuanbao and walked towards the opposite side.

Cao Jing watched her enter the other side and blinked, "Sure enough, she has to be the master, she is extraordinary."

"Le Xiang Shan, this name is interesting."

The west courtyard of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

"Is there someone living in that house?" Hu He leaned her head on the couch, a maid was tapping gently beside her legs, and another maid was standing on the other side, fanning gently.

The housekeeper of the Prime Minister's Mansion bowed and said, "Yes, Madam, we moved in this morning. We just changed the nameplate to 'Enjoy Good Deeds'."

"We haven't found out who's moving in yet."

Hu He waved her hand and waited until the maids left before she said, "Go find them and buy the house."

"That house is the best one we can find at the moment. It will be perfect as a dowry for Lan'er."

"If the other party refuses to sell, you can use some tricks."

"Yes." The butler bowed and walked out.

As soon as she reached the door, she saw Hu Helan walking towards her and immediately bowed, "Second Miss."

Hu Helan waved her hand and ran past him towards Hu Heshi, "Mother, I heard that my cousin Prince Rui is here and he wants to talk to you about something."

Hu He frowned, "Why are you the one delivering the message? Where are the people serving in the front hall?"

"Also, you are a woman who is about to get married. Why don't you stay in your boudoir and embroider instead of running to the front hall?"

Hu Helan curled her lips and said, "I was bored staying in the room, so I came out for a walk."

"Mom, you know I don't want to marry that Zhang Ke. How can a man from a poor family come to ask me to marry him?"

Hu He glared at her, "How dare you! Your parents' orders and the matchmaker's words don't count on you to decide whether you want to or not."

"What's more, this marriage was arranged by your grandfather and guaranteed by the Heavenly Family. Neither the Zhang Family nor our Hu Family has the right to withdraw."

"Don't say such things again, or you'll get into trouble and no one will be able to save you."

Seeing Hu Helan's face pouting like she was about to hang a bottle of oil on it, Hu He said helplessly: "Lan'er, Zhang Ke is not without merit. He has already won two prizes in a row. If he can win another prize this year, he will be the top scholar with three prizes."

"It's only a matter of time before you become a high-ranking official, so be careful with your words and actions."

Hu Helan thought of Zhang Ke's expressionless face when she last met him. Although he looked good, his mouth was as tight as a clam.

No matter how good or powerful you are, you are just a taciturn person.

Hu He glanced at her, straightened her clothes and stood up, saying, "Okay, I'll go see what Prince Rui wants to do. You go back to the courtyard first."

"Don't go out much during this period, and even if you want to pretend, you have to pretend for me."

After Prince Rui came out of Hu's mansion, he saw the carriage of Prince Qiong's mansion passing by and then turned into Hexi Road.

What is he going to do with Xilu?

Thinking of something, his eyes dimmed slightly, he looked up at the sky, calculated the time, and it was almost time.

King Rui watched for a while before getting on the carriage. When the people in the carriage saw him coming in, they asked, "Are you going back to the palace?"

"Let's go back. We are now out of power. Don't stay outside for too long." King Rui said as he lifted a corner of the curtain of the carriage and looked outside.

"By the way, how's the investigation going for you?"

Zhang Ke said: "All countries have let this matter go, I wonder why Your Highness is still investigating?"

King Rui folded the beads in his hand and said, "I have my own reasons."

Zhang Ke took out a piece of paper and handed it to him, saying, "According to what I have found, it is most likely the Crown Princess of Anguo, Yuan Man, because Anguo's fate did change because of her appearance."

"And the strange thing is that any information about her was hidden very well. After much investigation, we only know that she is the sister of Marquis Leshan and donated a lot of silver and grain to Anguo."

"The most important thing is that the Taiyuan River that An Guo just built was built with funds donated by her, so it was named Taiyuan River."

"It was she who proposed to build granaries in various parts of Anguo. I have also thought about the granary issue, but it is not easy to implement."

"And Anguo built twenty granaries in just one year, and they stored a lot of food."

King Rui read the information on the paper and burned it, then continued to play with the beads in his hand.

"Did Crown Princess Yuan Man contribute to this?"

Zhang Ke shook his head, "I haven't found out, but he should have contributed, otherwise it would not be possible with An Guo's strength."

King Rui paused as he was folding his beads, "Yes, it took more than a year to build such a large project, the river channel, and the granary."

"How can Anguo, which has been suffering from famine for a long time and has an empty treasury, do this?"
