Chapter 78
"Hmph, stingy!"
Xie Juan smiled and said: "My painting is ugly because I'm afraid it will stain the princess's eyes. Let's do it next time!"
After having dinner at the Duke's Mansion, the two of them went back. Xie Juan did not enter the mansion, but went into the palace to discuss with the emperor about sending Chao Hua to Mount Bodhi.
When Chaohua came back, he found the secret guard and asked about the recent actions of Baicaotang and Gu Wang.
Ying Qi said: "Back to princess, Baicao Hall is afraid that it will reopen, because the Chu family seems to intend to send a daughter to Prince Xian's Mansion, so that Prince Xian will be relieved and no longer intend to pursue the matter of Baicao Hall."
"It was Chu Yue who made this happen."
"Who is going to be offered to the palace? Is it to be offered to the Crown Prince as a concubine?" Chaohua was surprised at Chu Yue's ability, thinking that if Gu Wan didn't interfere, then she would be quite capable.
"I'm not a concubine, but a house filler for King Xian. The identity of the princess is Chu Xue, the second miss of Chu." Chu Xue is the legitimate daughter of the Chu family and is arrogant, so she would not be willing to be a concubine.
Chaohua raised his eyebrows, "That's Mrs. Chu's precious daughter. Is she willing to let Chu Xue marry Uncle Xian to fill the house?"
Not to mention King Xian's age, but King Xian's romantic character, Chu Xue would not have a good life after marrying him.
It would be better if she married Prince Xian, at least he is young.
Marry King Xian...
Chaohua was really disgusted. Chu Xue was only fifteen years old, right?
I wonder if Prince Xian and his wife would be disgusted when facing this little stepmother.
"Chu Yue didn't know what we did to threaten Mrs. Chu and her daughter, so that they had to agree. However, Mrs. Chu also put forward a condition, that is, after the opening of Baicaotang, 30% of the money should be given to Chu Xue every month.
"
"Prince Xian's Mansion heard that there was a 30% stake in Baicaotang, so he agreed to let Chu Xue in and did not intend to pursue the matter."
How much money does Baicaotang make?
Just buying elixirs and medicated meals, with the slogan of strengthening the body and extending life, a lot of rich people poured money into it. It is said that they made tens of thousands of taels a day. King Xian nodded his head after seeing the benefits.
This move can allow Baicaotang to reopen, and it will have an additional Xianwang Mansion as a backer, so that it can sit back and relax in the future.
Chaohua clenched his fist and said, "Find out a way to find out what kind of information Mrs. Chu has in Chu Yue's hands."
She won't let Baicaotang reopen.
Ying Qi said: "My subordinates are already investigating, but they are in the backyard, and some information is too easy to find out."
Chaohua understands that they will naturally be extra cautious about such a secret matter. Perhaps this secret is enough to put Mrs. Chu and the others' lives at risk, otherwise they will not compromise easily.
Ying Qi retreated, and Chaohua began to worry. If he could read the plot, he might be able to solve it without any effort.
"What's wrong?" Xie Juan came back and saw her sitting in front of the desk in a daze, so he came over to ask.
"Well, it's nothing. What did your father say?" Chaohua raised her eyes and looked at him, her eyes particularly gentle.
Xie Juan couldn't help but be stunned, "Without consent and saying it's not safe, he will find an opportunity to invite Master Bodhi to come to the capital."
"Are you really okay?"
She suddenly looked at him with such gentle eyes, Xie Juan was a little panicked...but don't worry.
"Tomorrow I will go to the palace and tell my father that we should go to Bodhi Mountain as soon as possible." Chao Hua stood up and came over to pull him to sit down together. "You must be tired! I will give you a squeeze on your legs."
"..."
"Do you have anything to ask me for help? If so, just say, I will help if I can." Because she is so well-behaved, he will help even if she can't help.
As she spoke, she hugged the person into her arms, but she threw herself into his arms anyway.
If you don't take advantage of it, you'd be a fool.
Chaohua nestled in his arms, unable to wait for the favorability level reminded by the small system, and was anxious, "It's about Baicaotang. Gu Wang and Chu Yue jointly opened Baicaotang. I don't want to see them get their way.
