Chapter 400: We are born from the same roots, but they make each other angry.
However, the bad news brought by Ji Chongning did not stay in his stomach for long.
After all, he is somewhat arrogant when it comes to Chen Dongyue.
So early the next morning, Chen Dongyue knew what the bad news was.
It turned out that after King Qi was tricked by King Kang before, he had always been interested in making King Kang shed some blood.
But I'm afraid it won't work if I want to steal King Kang's glass business.
After all, no matter how deposed King Kang is, he is still the elder brother of King Qi. It is not impossible for brothers to compete for business among themselves... although it is not impossible.
However, if this matter spreads, it will damage the image of King Qi.
In addition, his father was already old, and his mood and anger were even more elusive, so King Qi thought about it and decided not to argue with King Kang.
But what King Qi couldn't get, he didn't want others to get it.
Especially, money.
So, taking advantage of his birthday, King Qi went to the palace to meet the emperor on the grounds that he wanted to thank the emperor and Concubine Shu for their kindness in giving birth.
Along with him entered the palace, there were one hundred and eighty pieces of colored glass bought from King Kang.
After King Qi met the emperor, he presented the one hundred and eighty pieces of glazed glass to the emperor.
He said yes, he had heard that the glazed glass installed on the windows could make the indoor lighting transparent and bright, so he thought that such a good thing must be used to honor the emperor and the concubine first.
The emperor was satisfied with this.
Taking advantage of the emperor's happiness, King Qi said that in fact, he heard that these glazed glasses were sold by King Kang.
It's just that for some reason, he, the royal brother, has such a good thing and still hides it, as if someone wants to steal his business.
King Qi also said that if he could make colored glaze, he would definitely dedicate this glaze-making workshop to the emperor.
After all, the emperor is the father, and the father hasn’t used the good stuff yet, so how can his son use it first?
The emperor did not have a fit on the spot, but only praised King Qi for his hard work.
But afterwards, they called the Holy Guards and asked them to check whether the origin of the glazed glass was what King Qi said.
The Holy Guards were also very efficient in their work. In just two days, they found Jin Ningfang.
But as for the origin of the colored glass, because Sheng Yu Liuli didn’t have a shop and the factory didn’t know where it was located, the Holy Guards really had no way of finding out.
They didn't even know the name Sheng Yu Liuli.
After all...it seems that Chen Dongyue and the others only use this name in their internal account books and have never made it public.
The Holy Guard only knew that this glazed glass was sold in Jinningfang.
And Jinyifang seems to have some relationship with Zhang Shilang and the Sun family in Liaocheng.
How did Prince Kang's Mansion get involved in this matter? The Holy Guard said it would take some time to find out.
The emperor immediately scolded the leader of the Holy Guard, then called for Zhang Shilang and asked him about cooperating with Prince Kang's Mansion to produce colored glaze.
Zhang Shilang was stunned on the spot.
He didn’t know anything about Liulichang or Prince Kang’s Mansion! !
What does this have to do with him? !
But can the emperor believe him?
I definitely don’t believe it.
So he scolded Shilang Zhang and asked him to go back and check his property carefully before answering.
Poor Zhang Shilang returned home with a face full of the old emperor's saliva. After pondering over it, he went to ask Xie Jiao what was going on.
After all, he knows that Chen Dongyue sells colored glaze, so this matter must be closely related to Xie Jiao.
But what he didn't expect was that when asked about Liulichang, Xie Jiao was also confused. She said that she only knew that Chen Dongyue sells colored glaze, but she had never heard of Liulichang~~~
Can Shilang Zhang believe what Xie Jiao said?
He didn't believe it.
But there is no way to verify it!
After all, Zhang Shenzhi had never known exactly how much property Xie Jiao had brought from her mother's family.
Although there was a lot of money and shop in the dowry list on the surface, secretly, the Xie family didn't know how many shops and shopkeepers they had stuffed for Xie Jiao!
Let alone Zhang Shenzhi, even if the Holy Guard wanted to investigate Xie Jiao's property, they would not be able to find out clearly within three to five months.
Where the Liuli Glass Factory was and who opened it became an unsolvable mystery in the emperor's mind.
So the old emperor decided to find someone to go to Liaocheng to investigate the matter.
It's not that he wants King Kang's property, but that the glazed glass is indeed a bit rare... He doesn't need the factory, but he wants this factory for his own use.
The old emperor will be sixty-nine in two years.
When the time comes, he plans to build a new palace for the dead queen.
In order to show his affection for the queen, the palace must be built magnificently.
And this glazed glass~~~~~ can be used to build a new palace.
Just imagine, an entire palace is inlaid with glass worth thousands of gold, how spectacular it is!
At that time, the emperor can still take his concubines to miss the queen in the Liuli Palace...
Who can not be moved by the emperor's love as deep as the sea?
However, the emperor was having a hard time choosing who to go to Liaocheng to investigate.
Who to send?
Just when the emperor was in trouble, the empress dowager recommended someone to him.
That is the son of the former prince, Gongziwen. That is, a gift of ten thousand yuan is approximately equal to Ji Chongning.
This guy has so many names, I don’t know if he can remember them all.
What the Empress Dowager means is that Young Master Wen is already twenty, and now his status is so embarrassing that he doesn't even have a title.
After all, the emperor is also Gong Ziwen's grandfather, and the former prince has been gone for several years. There can't be such a stalemate between grandfather and grandson forever, right?
Since we have to choose someone to do things this time, why not let Gongzi Wen give it a try.
If Gong Ziwen can handle the matter by then, he will give the title to the child.
The Empress Dowager said that even if she was granted the title of a county prince, it would be fine.
Otherwise, this kid wouldn't even be able to get a decent wife!
They are already twenty years old, and they are only followed by a guard every day. People who don't know better think that they are both broken sleeves!
How disgraceful to the royal family.
After the empress dowager said so loudly, the emperor nodded in agreement and asked Gong Ziwen to come to Liaocheng to verify the matter.
"You have said so much," Chen Dongyue held the horse and tilted her head to look at Ji Chongning, "You mean that the emperor has fallen in love with Liuli, and then he wants to take Liuli as his own?"
"Can you not say it so bluntly?" Ji Chongning looked around furtively, "Although what you said is correct,...can't we put it another way?"
"Then what should I say?" Chen Dongyue curled her lips, "It's not a good thing to be left or right."
Ji Chongning asked Chen Dongyue mysteriously, "So you actually opened the Liulichang, right?
Then you dragged King Kang and others onto your pirate ship, right? "
"Nonsense." Chen Dongyue rolled her eyes at Ji Chongning, "How could I, a small seventh-grade official, have the ability to join Prince Lakang's family? Don't make random guesses.
Okay, I have to go to the Yamen to work. You...otherwise go to Prince Kang's Mansion and ask. "
After saying that, Chen Dongyue pulled away from Ji Chongning, climbed on Chen Gangdan, and prepared to go out.
"Tell me the truth, and I will find a way to help you crack it." Ji Chongning shouted at Chen Dongyue's back.
Chen Dongyue turned to look at Ji Chongning and asked something that she had always been confused about, "Why do you want to help me?"
"Because..." Ji Chongning's expression suddenly became a little awkward.
Geng Hui began to think, after arriving at the Beilin Army, should he go directly to assassinate Song Ke?
Just like when Jing Ke stabbed the King of Qin, when Song Ke wasn't paying attention, he pretended to go looking for him and then stabbed him.
Let's go for assassination, Geng Hui thought. His acting skills are not good, so assassination is more suitable for him.
Chen Dongyue also frowned and looked at Ji Chongning.
If he dares to say anything inappropriate right now, Chen Dongyue will definitely throw him out of Dehe Villa.
Although her marriage to Song Ke was not the result of her own choice and was somewhat in name only.
But before she and Song Ke get together, she won't do those messy things.
Although Chen Dongyue does not reject Ji Chongning, she even finds him somewhat intriguing.
But now, they can only be friends, comrades-in-arms,...anyway, they can't be lovers.
"Because..." Ji Chongning seemed to have mustered up a lot of courage and said to Chen Dongyue: "I also want to buy a stake in your Liulichang! Is that okay? Please, I'm so poor."
Chen Dongyue almost fell off the horse.
Okay, I'm being pretentious.
Sao Arui~~~~
And Geng Hui even sighed out a small tornado.
Can his master be decisive? !
Why is he almost dying of poverty? Obviously...forget it, let Song Ke live a few more days.
