The flowering period works

Chapter 885: A Bold Stroke in History

    

hen they suddenly saw Grandma at the doorway, they were overjoyed."Grandma, Grandma, how did you get here!" Jiaxi rushed forward and hugged her grandmother, asking.Li Ge'er and Mao Ge'er were also che...Before she could finish her words, the Empress Dowager had already thrown the bowl of congee from her hand.

Grandma was so frightened that she immediately knelt down.

When he wanted to say something more, the old eunuch standing beside him had already stepped forward and drove people away, "Shut up, get out!"

Grandma quickly knelt down and shuffled to the door, then stumbled over the threshold and shut it firmly.

The old eunuch took a clean handkerchief and served the empress dowager by wiping her hands.

For quite a while, the Empress Dowager remained silent before finally asking, "Has any news come in from outside"

The old eunuch shook his head. “No, I doubt it’s easy to find a pawn as foolish as the Wu family. The outsider hasn't made another move.”

The Empress Dowager's expression grew increasingly grim. Finally, she put on the jeweled armor and said in a grave voice: "After these years of cultivation, has Emperor Tianwu forgotten that there is still an Empress Dowager here"

"The officials have all abandoned me, not even a few servants regard this empress in their eyes! They dare to replace the blood-fed swallows I've been accustomed to with others. To say they have no one backing them is simply inconceivable!"

The old eunuch quickly advised: "Your Majesty, please calm down. This year's rain has been heavy, making it truly difficult to obtain blood swallows."

The man over there, he has some thoughts in his mind but doesn't dare to act unfilial for real. Otherwise, everyone in the world would probably poke at his spine. What face would he have left to sit on that chair

"Humph!" the Empress Dowager snorted.

Apparently, this reason was not enough to appease her anger.

"Recently, some new clothes have been made for me. It's the New Year, and I will show everyone in Tianwu that I am still alive!"

"Yes, Empress Dowager," the old eunuch quickly replied.

Seeing that the Empress Dowager had no further instructions, she quickly retreated.

The Empress Dowager sat at the table, her fingers drumming slowly on the pillow, each tap a muffled drumbeat, like a war drum. But where this first spark of conflict would ignite, she could only wonder...

Jiayin may not know about the chaos in the palace, even if she did, she wouldn't care.

The soft opening was a huge success, giving the business a great start before its official opening tomorrow.

Whether it was Yao Zhǎngguì or the young lads and maids, they were all filled with chicken blood, brimming with confidence.

In the afternoon, all the male guests in the lobby had also left.

Li Laer and Liu Zhiheng helped send off the guests, then went back to sober up.

Jia Ren and Li Ge'er, as well as Gu Li and Mu Xu, were sitting in the backyard of the fruit and vegetable shop, talking with Jia Yin.

Jiārén and Lǐgē'er will visit the professors of the academy to offer New Year's gifts one after another. Since they won't be able to come over to help tomorrow, they instructed Gǔlì and Mùxú to take good care of things.

Gu Li smiled and said, "Rest assured, Young Master. These two shops also have a share of the profits for the little people, and they were even personally repaired by the little people themselves. No one wants the business to thrive more than us."

"I will do my best!"

Mu Xu glanced at him, then at Jia Yin who was busy checking the list, and also raised an eyebrow: "Wherever the county princess is, I am there. There's no need for the young master to command me, I naturally do my best."

Jia Ren smiled, chatted a few more idle words, and then took Li Ge'er back to the Earl's Mansion.

Jia Yin brought some food for her sister-in-law and nephew, then tidied up and took Gugui and Mu Xu back to Suijin Beach early.

Today is the first time Er Cun's bean sprout workshop delivered bean sprouts to Junying Wharf. Almost as soon as Jia Yin's carriage arrived at the intersection, women like Xiao Cui swarmed out, excitedly sharing the good news.

"My lady, we sent our bean sprouts to the military camp. The camp cook stir-fried them, and all the soldiers loved them!"

"My lady, there are five more wine shops today. From now on, we'll need one hundred catties of bean sprouts every day."

"And, and, those people from the relief agency are amazing too. They ran back and forth three times a day carrying bean sprouts, selling over 600 jin!"

Jiayin was also happy for them and specially got off the car to take a walk around the bean sprout workshop.

Qi Jia's boy was just watering the bean sprouts, and his sister was helping him on the side.

The workshop was already a place where aunts worked together. With his arrival, the young lad from Qi's family couldn't help but be curious.

When he heard that it was the princess herself who had arranged this, he burst into tears holding his younger sister that night.

Seeing the county princess arrive, he pulled his younger sister down and knelt to kowtow.

Jia Yin was not good at helping Qi Jia's son, Mu Xu grabbed him up and said, "A man has gold under his knees, don't just kneel around, the county princess doesn't like to be worshipped."

"If you truly want to repay your debt, learn more skills. In the future, when the time comes, you can serve the princess."

Jia Yin nodded, unable to help but glance at Mu Xu.

He had only been by her side for a short time, and yet he already knew her temperament so well……

Is it because they are naturally meticulous and responsible, or is there another reason!

On the second day, the hot pot restaurant named "Yang Ming Tianxia" officially opened its doors.

New Du has always had wealthy people, or rather, it's never lacked wealthy people who love the new and exciting.

Yesterday's trial operation was a success. All the customers who came said they liked it, and after leaving, they didn't shy away from promoting it either.

So, before noon, both the upper and lower floors of the hotpot restaurant were full.

The young lads and maidservants were much busier than yesterday, their feet barely touching the ground.

Fortunately, the broth was pre-boiled, and the side dishes didn't need to be stir-fried or deep-fried; they just needed to be arranged on a plate.

Though busy, everyone remained calm and capable.

Jia Yin was sitting in the backyard, and it was even more peaceful than yesterday.

I thought my second uncle and his family would come visit again, but they never showed up.

Jia Yin couldn't help but be curious, so she asked someone to find out.

The result, the message sent back, she was truly startled...

In half a month, it will be Chinese New Year's Eve.

At this time, by custom, both from the imperial court to ordinary people, everyone hoped for peace and prosperity. Even if something happened, it was put off until after the new year.

All I want is to have a good year and not add to my own troubles during this time of saying goodbye to the old and welcoming the new.

But obviously, this beautiful wish cannot be realized.

This year is destined to be an extraordinary one, and it must be recorded in history with bold strokes!

Following the fall of the Wu family and the indictment of six officials previously, today's grand court meeting brought misfortune to another prominent family: the Wang family.

Several dozen commoners from Wangjia Lao Er's previous workplace came to the new capital and pounded on the cowhide drum in front of Dali Temple, filing a serious complaint.

These dozen or so people were dressed in rags, thin as sticks, and it was unclear how they had traveled thousands of miles.

To say that no one offered a helping hand, no one gave them confidence, and no one believed in them would be an understatement!

But that's no longer important. What matters is they brought irrefutable evidence.

Wang Lao Er manipulated the imperial examinations, bought and sold official positions, colluded with local aristocratic families, and oppressed the common people. The accounts clearly recorded every detail.

It is said that there are still a lot of local people's testimonies, who did not enter Beijing completely. Whoever wants to check, please go ahead, guaranteed to be true...

Since Wang Laoer returned to Xindu, he has always been low-key. Unexpectedly, the rare time he put on a show, he went too far.

Wang Laoli certainly cried out his innocence on the spot.

At that moment, the onlookers hesitated, unsure whether to intervene or remain neutral. However, Hou Xinting took the initiative and volunteered to lead troops to raid the Wang family's residence...

Upon receiving the message, Jia Yin's first thought was that her godfather had finally avenged her!

The Wu family and the Empress spared no effort to get her heart's blood, and the mastermind behind this was Wang Lao Er.

There's a desire within the family to clean up Wang Lao Er's mess, but their capabilities are limited, and they don't want to prematurely involve those behind him.

I didn't expect the Marquis to start moving so soon after returning.

The news spread like wildfire through the teahouse, both upstairs and downstairs. Everyone buzzed with speculation and gossip!
