When Ye Miao arrived, he saw the inner fan in the living room half open, and the light inside was revealed through the gap.

She saw Chu Xiang under the light at first sight, and her brows frowned slightly on her cold and handsome face.

Ye Miao walked two more steps forward and saw the old Chu Xiang.

"Grandpa Chu."

Ye Miao shouted and walked in.

There were only Lao Chuxiang and Chuxiang inside, and she didn't know what Lao Chuxiang called her to do.

Do you want to talk about recognizing one's ancestors?

"The girl is here." Old Chuxiang's face was normal, but when he saw her, he suddenly became kind.

"I wanted to introduce someone you knew, but unfortunately he left in advance."

"Who?" Ye Miao said curiously.

Before Old Chuxiang could speak, Chuxiang coughed heavily.

Old Chuxiang glanced at him, turned to Ye Miao and said, "I will introduce you to you next time I have the chance."

"Did you use dinner?"

"I'm just about to use it, but you called me." Ye Miao said honestly.

"That's right, go with me for dinner."

"OK."

Old Chuxiang stretched out his hand, Ye Miao stepped forward to help him up, and the two walked out together.

Chu Xiang stood up and watched the two leave. The cold peach blossom eyes under the light became a little darker again.

…

While waiting for Ye Miao to come, Feng Tai suddenly appeared, "Emperor, an urgent report came from the palace. The old concubine suddenly felt unwell."

The old concubine met the deceased empress dowager since childhood and had a good relationship. The empress dowager passed away early and the old concubine had no children. The empress dowager entrusted Emperor Qi to her and asked her to take good care of Emperor Qi.

Therefore, the old concubine is half of her biological mother to Emperor Qi.

When Emperor Qi heard the news, he immediately said goodbye.

The old concubine was uncomfortable, so the old Chu Xiang naturally did not dare to keep him and respectfully sent Emperor Qi away.

After leaving the Prime Minister's Mansion, the carriage entered the palace unimpeded.

After a while, Emperor Qi went to the Imperial Study.

"What have you found?" Emperor Qi asked in a deep voice.

It turned out that the old concubine was just a cover to hide the spy in the palace.

Fengtai said: "When I returned to the emperor, my subordinates found out that a few months ago, a woman came to the prime minister's wife, who was said to be the prime minister's outer wife."

Emperor Qi frowned. As far as he knew, Mrs. Chu would not only not stop her from urging her woman into the mansion, but instead would arrange her generously.

How could there be an outdoor girl?

"Is it true or false?"

"This matter is true. Not long ago, Mrs. Chu held a blind date for her, and her wife had attended it." Feng Tai said.

However, I didn't check what happened eighteen years ago at that time, so I didn't take it to heart.

Emperor Qi asked, "How old is it? What's the name?"

"That woman is eighteen years old and her name is Ye Miao."

Emperor Qi's expression changed drastically.

A conversation that many years ago appeared in my mind.

"Who else is there in your family?"

"My parents have both passed away. There is a sister who is two years older than me. She married two years ago and gave birth to a cute twin. My brother-in-law is named Ye."

Eighteen years ago, the surname was Ye and the outer woman.

Emperor Qi closed his eyes and remembered the expression of Chu Xiang's strong opposition when Old Chu Xiang said he wanted to introduce someone to him.

The bright yellow hands clenched into fists under normal consumption, and the whole body could not control its slight tremor.

Chu Feng, Chu Feng, you really lied to me!

But I don’t know if I should hate you or be grateful to you!

"Tomorrow..." Emperor Qi slowly opened his eyes, his voice hoarse, "I will go to the prime minister's mansion to visit the old prime minister again..."

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid it's inappropriate."

Fengtai calmly stopped him, "The subordinates believed that the prime minister would take her back and treat her as his daughter. There might be some conspiracy in the middle."

"Since you already know her identity, the emperor might as well wait a little longer and let your subordinates find out first."

Seeing that Emperor Qi didn't seem to listen, Feng Tai said again: "There is also the Empress, the Empress seems to have noticed it. If she knows that you already know this..."

Emperor Qi's expression moved, "As long as you say."

After a while, he asked again, "When will the Empress go to Huangen Temple?"

"Three days later."

As he was speaking, an eunuch was heretic: "Your Majesty, I have something to report."

Emperor Qi stopped and “Come in.”

An old eunuch came in tremblingly, "Your Majesty, the Supreme Emperor will not eat again at night."

Emperor Qi held his forehead, "What do you want to do?"

"The Supreme Emperor said that if you want to eat grilled fish, the servant couldn't persuade him. Please forgive me."

What kind of grilled fish should I eat so late!

"I understand, go and tell your father that I will buy it for him in two days, but he must have a good meal in the past two days!"

It's such a headache. I'm so old and I'm still so picky about food!

"Yes, the emperor, the slave will take his leave."

…

"Young boss, take a rest and eat something."

Manager Bai Da walked in with tea and snacks.

Jiang Zhixia put down the account book and pinched her eyebrows.

Although the shop under Jiang's Trading Company was opened, the impact of the matter that the government came to investigate last time was still there.

Many businesses are on the stand-by and have not fully resumed cooperation with Jiang's Trading Bank.

Therefore, Jiang's business still hurt a lot of energy.

Jiang Zhixia took a snack and put it in her mouth, and called Manager Bai to sit down together, "How is the Mixing now?"

"Late rice is harvested one after another in various places, and the yield this year is better than in previous years, but..."

Manager Bai Da hesitated for a moment, "Because of the previous incident, many rice merchants would rather sell last year's inventory first than purchase it."

"Now the rice shop has more money and less money, I'm afraid if I go down..."

"Let's find a way to transfer some silver from elsewhere, and the rice in the villagers' hands must be collected at the agreed price."

Jiang Zhixia said: "The reputation of Jiang's business cannot be lost."

"I know, young boss."

The two of them were drinking tea while talking about the business.

Although the situation is a bit tense now, fortunately, the end of the year is approaching, and as long as you survive these two months, everything will be fine.

Jiang Zhixia was full of confidence.

After drinking tea and having snacks, Jiang Zhixia was about to re-read the account book when a guy suddenly ran in.

"Young boss, someone has sent a letter that he has designated to hand it over to you."

"Where did the letter come from?" Jiang Zhixia put down the account book.

“Not signed.”

"show me."

The guy handed the letter to Jiang Zhixia. Jiang Zhixia took it and opened it, and an exquisite golden hairpin fell out of it.

Jiang Zhixia's expression changed drastically.

The golden hairpin was given to Mrs. Jiang a few days ago. Mrs. Jiang liked it so much that she wore it for several days.

When he was sending him out this morning, he clearly remembered that Mrs. Jiang was wearing this golden hairpin.
