Chapter 1133 Xiao Zhen is missing again
Tan Qingyun's whole body softened, and he knelt on the ground again with a plop. "I am innocent! Lord, Strawberry used silver to bribe people and tried many other methods to get this house, but it didn't work. Even after getting it, the house was still fake, and a lot of food was lost. But I will let my subordinates continue the experiment, which may take some time. However, some of them have been shaped, but they are a bit bitter. They are not as delicious as those processed by the county lord."
In fact, it is very easy to crack the noodles.
But I just can't get that taste.
A nasty batch.
"If you can't do it, then find someone who can. If you don't get any profit this year, you know the consequences." The Marquis's eyes were cold. This was not a discussion at all. As a Marquis, he wanted results.
He didn't want to know how it happened.
Tan Qingyun was completely stunned.
How can the Marquis speak like this?
Tan Qingyun did so many things, all for the Marquis.
He gritted his teeth and agreed: "Yes, I will find a way."
After Tan Qingyun left the Marquis' Mansion, he became depressed.
Mrs. Zhao Wu has already lay down.
Seeing that the Marquis had just returned, she stood up to greet him.
She thought the Marquis would go to other concubines to rest, but she didn't expect him to come to her.
She was old and began to feel hot all over, thinking that the Marquis wanted to do something exciting with her.
But he saw clearly that the Marquis's expression was not very good, so he quickly served tea.
"Master, are you in a bad mood today? Is there anything you can talk to me about?" Wu stood beside the Marquis and massaged his shoulders.
"Ah, that Mingyang County Lady is not a good person. I never thought that a small county lady could pose any threat to our mansion. I didn't expect that a prescription of hers would make the emperor give her a title. It's not simple, not simple."
The Marquis shook his head repeatedly.
Wu was completely confused. She didn't hear clearly what the Marquis said, and most importantly, she didn't understand it at all.
"My Lord, she is just a woman. The Emperor only gave her a title and did not give her too many benefits. It is normal for a woman who is not a member of the royal family to get the position of county lord as long as she has made achievements. My Lord, is there any problem with this?"
Wu didn't understand at all.
"Our grandson needs a lot of funds at the most critical moment. We are marrying into the Tan family to support the third prince. If we want to stabilize the workshop completely, the Tan family must get the recipe. The Tan family is useless and ruthless. They let the famous county lady grow up. We can't even rob her by force!"
The Marquis said with a headache.
"Ah? Recently, that Mingyang County Lady did give the emperor some prescription and was given the title. Could that prescription be the one used in the workshop?" When Mrs. Wu heard this, she was stunned and stopped massaging.
"That's right, that's what I mean." What method is the Marquis thinking of to get rid of this county lady?
"She is just a small county lady. She doesn't have any background. Find someone to kill her..." Mrs. Wu made a gesture of wiping her neck with her hand.
"Just as the emperor got the prescription, Princess Mingyang was killed. The emperor will definitely investigate. This method is not feasible for the time being." The Marquis did not want to cause trouble for the third prince at all.
All he wants now is to get more money.
"If it's not possible inside the city, then it should be okay outside the city, right?" Wu felt that even if a little county lady was favored by the emperor, she was just a woman.
The women who can get close to the emperor all have their own abilities.
The only thing Lady Mingyang did was to save someone years ago, and she had some achievements. She didn't need to worry about the food prescription at all.
The emperor rewards countless people every year, so Gu Yao is nothing.
Wu didn't take it seriously at all.
"Well, maybe you have some idea! You should think about it in the next two days to find some good ideas. Half of the year has passed, and it's already summer. If we want our grandson to have a steady stream of money in the future, we two old people have to pay attention to it." The Marquis didn't want to get involved in muddy water, so he let Wu do it.
If a woman did something and was discovered, he, the Loyal and Brave Marquis, would not be implicated. It would only be the matter of the woman in the backyard.
If the case is traced back to them, it would be a crime of negligence at most, and there wouldn't be any big problems.
Wu asked the Marquis not to worry.
The Marquis also saw that his wife was so tactful and favored her very much.
Although she is old, the places that should be plump are now shriveled because she has given birth to several children.
When we were doing that together, it wasn't as exciting as being with a concubine.
The Marquis also pretended to enjoy it.
He knew how terrifying a woman could be when she became ruthless, and he also knew about Wu's methods.
Many concubines and aunts in the backyard died in the past. Later, when Wu was a little older, she finally figured it out. She was not as vicious as she was when she was young.
This allowed the aunts and concubines in the backyard to have children.

Gu Yao was busy earning money at home and constantly making pills.
Don’t clean up the area in the backyard where noodles are processed. Use it as a place specifically for processing medicinal materials.
The whole yard was filled with the fragrance of medicine.
To make people who don't know the situation think that someone in the mansion is seriously ill? He kept boiling medicine every day.
"Qiuqiu, where is your eldest brother? Where did Xiao Zhen go?" Gu Yao said to Qiuqiu.
"I don't know. The boss must be investigating something. He must be busy." Qiuqiu knew that their boss wanted to avenge the Xiao family. Until now, he has been working for the young lady while privately investigating the causes and consequences of the incident in the Xiao family.
How far has the investigation progressed so far? She was just a secret guard and now the young lady's maid, so it's even more unclear.
Xiao Yi heard the young lady and Qiuqiu chatting in the pharmacy, and they mentioned the boss.
Their eldest brother said that he was going to investigate something, but even he didn't know what he was doing.
If you ask Qiuqiu now, the lady won’t get anything out of you.
Xiao Yi stood calmly on the tree, scanning the surroundings for safety.
"Xiao Zhen is a person who can't sit still. This lady really picked up a big treasure. He is really capable." Gu Yao chuckled.
Qiuqiu blinked.
What the lady said sounded a little wrong, but I didn't know what was wrong.
Xiao Yi stood on the tree, almost laughing to death.
He was a secret guard and could only suppress his laughter in his heart.
