Wanyan Lin was discussing a confrontation with Han Zezhong in the imperial study, and the story of the Tianlan army pressing down on the border began to circulate in the streets and alleys. Even the reason and all the requirements of tianlan country's army were not bad.
Su Mianyue had so many businesses in Imperial Capital that he got the news very quickly.
His subordinates were inevitably worried. They knew that their boss was a woman of extraordinary origin and ability. She was not an ordinary woman, but they did not expect that Su Mianyue was the most beautiful empress in the legend of the Tianlan!
Although they would resist the rumors that su mianyue was not su mianyue, Su Mianyue's beauty was an indisputable fact, and everyone believed the rumors were true.
"Boss, now that the rumors have spread all over Imperial Capital, the entire Hengyuan probably knows about it, and the rumors are very bad for the boss. I'm afraid that soon, some officials will speak against the boss and ask the boss to prepare early," shopkeeper xu said.
"Send someone to find out the source and authenticity of the news, and then send someone to counter these voices." Su Mianyue's mind had already drifted to the palace. She had received the news, and he must have known about it. He did not know how to deal with it.
"The people below know how to deal with it without the order of the owner, but our voices are far from those who want to push the owner out, and the rumor has just begun, and many of the mansions have taken action to make the rumor spread more widely." Shopkeeper xu replied with a bitter face.
"It really hurts the blood of their men to find some people at the bottom and let them sing praises to me as poor people, saying that pushing a woman who is in favor of the people to help the court really hurts the blood of their men. Besides, the Tianlan has so many requests, aren't they afraid that the emptiness of the treasury won't satisfy the appetite of the Tianlan?" Su Mianyue smiled coldly and said sharply, "The most important thing is that the queen of the Tianlan has already entered Imperial Mausoleum. This official is just a woman of the same name and surname. If we use this reason in the future, how much gold, silver and cities in hengyuan state are enough to compensate? Are the people of the Hengyuan really willing to become slaves of the country?"
Su Mianyue's tone was calm, but there was a tinge of coldness in his words, as if he had been betrayed. His heart ached and ached, but it was only a moment of sadness before he laughed.
If Wanyan Lin really decided to send her back to the Tianlan, and the people of the Hengyuan also had the idea of withdrawing her, then Su Mianyue did not need to be compassionate, so she just directly removed the company and let them know the consequences of ingratitude.
"Shopkeeper xu doesn't have to be alarmed. He just has to keep his business in order these days. If he finds out that things are not right, the money in the shop will be divided up. Some of it will be used as severance pay for those employees, and the rest will be used as my shock payment for shopkeeper xu." Su Mianyue said lightly, not caring about the benefits at all. All she needed was connections and information.
"Boss..." Shopkeeper xu's eyes turned red, thinking that Su Mianyue knew the result was inevitable, so he made this move.
Su Mianyue waved his hand slightly to signal the shopkeeper not to say anything more, "The same goes for the other shops. Shopkeeper xu just has to arrange it. As for the shops, they will be left empty and will be taken over in the future."
"Yes." Shopkeeper xu stood up and took his leave. He wanted to continue to follow Su Mianyue, but the lives of his family had to be taken into account. He just sighed that beauty had always been unlucky.
Su Mianyue knew that many people would be watching her mansion at this time. If she went out in a hurry, she would be in trouble.
Moreover, when Su Mianyue first came to Imperial Capital, not only did he ask shopkeeper xu to help him acquire the store and set up an intelligence network, but he also asked Junn Buhui to help him buy some industries when he met Junn Buhui. There were also two very small shops that Su Mianyue's people took over after they arrived in Capital City. Even if Su Mianyue could no longer stay in Imperial Capital, those intelligence networks would not suffer any losses.
She smiled quietly. Su Mianyue told her servants to push anyone away and go to the inner room to sleep. She still had a secret operation tonight.
Not to mention that Su Mianyue's side was calm, Wanyan Lin almost got angry in the imperial study, and two buddha tricks ascended into the sky. Did the son of heaven not even have the right to make a decision?
Outside the imperial study was a group of ministers kneeling on their knees, all of them asking for an imperial edict to send Su Mianyue away. How was this different from forcing a palace?
Seeing that Wanyan Lin's face was grim and terrible, Han Zezhong did not stupidly step forward to dissuade him, but felt sorry for Su Mianyue. In addition to Su Mianyue's identity, such an outstanding and capable woman was indeed worthy of the king of a country. If Su Mianyue could enter the harem, it would definitely be a blessing for the Hengyuan. At least the much-awaited Hengyuan needed someone like Su Mianyue.
Of course, the premise is that Su Mianyue can't be the queen.
"Your majesty, this matter is not something that can be solved by the word dragging formula. Empress Dowager already knows that at this time, Retired Emperor will also receive news later. By then, there will be two more people who agree to send Miss Su away. How will your majesty disobey these two?" At the mention of Retired Emperor and Empress Dowager, Han Zezhong cupped his hands in respect and continued to look at Wanyan Lin with sympathy.
The most taboo of the imperial family was the love between children. The more Wanyan Lin cared about Su Mianyue, the more likely Su Mianyue would become the target of public criticism.
With a sinister look at Han Zezhong, Wanyan Lin asked coldly, "What does Elder Han mean by that? Does Elder Han also think that I should agree to the threat of the Tianlan and be an emperor who can't raise his head to protect the territory?"
"Is the emperor planning to go to war with the Tianlan without handing over Miss Su?" Han Zezhong looked at Wanyan Lin with complicated eyes, wanting to know what Wanyan Lin was thinking.
"The emperor of the Tianlan has always coveted our hengyuan state. When Prince Regent was in power, he not only sent me, the son of the Tianlan, to the Tianlan as a proton, but also sent a huge amount of jewelry and beauties to the company every year. How is it different from those small countries that depend on it to survive? If we cut the land and pay for it again, wouldn't we want to turn the Hengyuan into a small country with bullets? In the future, if the Tianlan sneezes, it will be able to swallow up all of them. Elder Han really wants to be reduced to war and let me become the king of the lost country without a battle?"
Han Zezhong knelt down on one knee and said in a hurry, "Please forgive me, your majesty. I have no intention of doing this. The Hengyuan only have sons who died in battle, and they are not useless slaves."
Originally, she wanted to persuade Wanyan Lin again. After all, Su Mianyue was only a woman. She had limited ability and strength, and she could be stronger than the young talents of the entire Hengyuan.
Wanyan Lin's words, however, elevated the situation to the rhythm of national subjugation, and the Tianlan's reason for sending troops this time was that no one could determine whether it was true or not. As long as the public opinion was properly used, the situation could be reversed.
Discussing with Han Zezhong some ways to fight the Tianlan army, Wanyan Lin was called to the summer palace by Retired Emperor. This group of men could not avoid the topic of women in their discussions, but they did not know that the people they were talking about were sleeping soundly in their boudoir.
Outside the su residence, a group of righteous people asked Su Mianyue to leave the Hengyuan, not to bring disaster to the Hengyuan, and even called Su Mianyue a beauty in distress. It was simply to the extent that god would destroy earth.
Not long after, another wave of people, dressed in coarse linen and with patches on their bodies, rushed over with knives, sticks, and other things. Even the theory was exempted and they fought directly with the so-called scholars, saying vulgar and easy to understand words. It was obvious that they were defending Su Mianyue's faction. And most of them were people who had received Su Mianyue's favor.
In other words, how many people in the entire Hengyuan who live at the bottom of the hierarchy have not received Su Mianyue's favor?
