Adorable Food Goddess

King Yu heard that Liuli came to see her, and he felt strange. He asked Ah Ruan, who said he didn't know. He originally wanted Liuli to wait, but Liuli left and said he would come back another day.

King Yu thought that it might not be an important matter, so he didn't take it to heart.

Early the next morning, Chunyu was summoned to the palace. Two days later, the Empress Dowager's funeral was held. As a first-class guard in the palace, Chunyu naturally had to shoulder the heavy responsibility of maintaining order and royal safety. The prince presided over the funeral and had already given Chunyu a big holiday for his own personal gain, but now he had to summon him.

In Chunyu's absence, Ye Jiayao didn't go out. Even the training class was given to Mrs. Rong, so that if there was any news, she could deal with it as soon as possible.

After breakfast, news came. It was just a letter from the uncle of the Qiao family. He said that the building she asked him to help find was already available. Needless to say, the location was no worse than that of Tianshangju, and the scene was better than Tianshangju is even more grand. It was originally a restaurant. Unfortunately, it was poorly managed and had no business. The owner didn't want to open it, so he changed hands.

Elegantly, it boils down to one thing. This floor meets her requirements in all aspects, and is even better. However, the price is also on the high side, 20% higher than expected.

Twenty percent is not a small amount. Although she is very rich now and has no shortage of money, with a building price of more than two hundred thousand, twenty percent is four to fifty thousand taels of money, which can be used to do a lot of things. However, if this floor is really as good as Mr. Qiao said, it doesn't matter if it's more expensive, you can make it back.

Ye Jiayao thought for a while and asked Manager Zhao to come to Suzhou. She could trust Manager Zhao's vision and ability. If Manager Zhao thought it was good, she would buy the building.

As soon as Manager Zhao stepped forward, Song Qi ran over.

"Second Young Mistress, there is news from Master Jiu."

Ye Jiayao was shocked and said anxiously: "Found it?"

Song Qi nodded: "Found it, but the brothers over there are not sure whether it is the person we are looking for."

Ye Jiayao said happily: "Go and take a look. Be careful not to be discovered. If so, let Jiuye's people monitor the people from a distance first and don't alert them."

Song Qi accepted the promise and turned around to go. Ye Jiayao stopped him again and gave him two hundred taels of silver notes: "You take it to drink for Master Jiu's brothers. They have worked hard these past two days."

These are rewards for finding people, as well as for those who have not found people but are still working hard. Ye Jiayao will not forget it. Master Jiu gave the order and they had to work even if they worked for nothing. But if Ye Jiayao gives some benefits, they will not forget it. The same, they will be willing to work harder, and at the same time they will give Master Jiu face.

It doesn't cost a lot of money, but it can make everyone happy, so why not do it.

In less than an hour, Song Qi came back, and it was confirmed that it was Nanny Fang and Cui Yan. The place was very hidden, and the two lived in seclusion, and the neighbors didn't know who lived there. Coincidentally, this house belonged to a relative of one of Master Jiu's gangsters, so I found it.

Ye Jiayao calmed down after finding the person. What to do next?

The best solution is for the two of them to disappear forever.

But she couldn't do such a thing, and she wouldn't be so cruel. In that case, what's the difference between her and Liuli? Liuli could easily force Grandma Fu to death and the poisonous Xiaoya, but she couldn't do it, her hands were stained with blood, and not everyone had the courage. In this regard, she considered herself inferior to Liuli.

Persuade Cuiyan to leave? Would you like to persuade Grandma Fang not to help others do evil again?

It's hard, Cuiyan relies on something and wants something, and Granny Fang is Liuli's loyal servant. The two of them may agree in person, but it's also possible that they turn around and regret it.

Or rather, hide these two people so that Liuli can't find them.

Ye Jiayao was very confused.

After thinking about it, I might as well ask Youshi what he meant.

When Youshi heard that the person had been found, her face turned rosy with excitement.

"Jinxuan, what do you think we should do?"

Uh...I still want to ask you this question! Ye Jiayao didn't know what to say for a moment.

Youshi was determined and had an idea, but she didn't say anything because she just wanted to hear what Jinxuan would do.

How to decide a dispute concerning the reputation of the Hou Mansion and Chunli's future? Is it the benevolence of a woman or the decisiveness of killing without leaving any consequences?

She could clearly see Cuiyan's character. Mingxiu was no match for Cuiyan, and Chunli was a brainless person. Therefore, she did not allow Chunli to accept Cuiyan as a concubine. It should be noted that the concubine would not be favored again. You cannot go past your first wife, otherwise, the family will be in chaos.

Therefore, there is no need to expect Cuiyan to stop unless her goal is achieved.

As for Aunt Fang, the old slave who has been with the Queen Mother for many years, her loyalty to the Queen Mother and Liuli has reached the point where she does not distinguish right from wrong or right from wrong.

Therefore, there is no need to expect Grandma Fang to obey orders.

Youshi looked at Jinxuan with a heavy gaze, feeling a little heavy. Do you still need to hesitate? In fact, everyone knows this matter. There are only two solutions. One, remove the adults and children together, and two, keep the older ones but not the younger ones. If the children are gone, the evidence is gone.

Compared with the reputation of the Hou Mansion, she has no burden at all to sacrifice Cuiyan. Cuiyan is not a good thing in the first place.

However, Jinxuan was still hesitating, and Youshi was a little disappointed. After all, Jinxuan still lacked a bit of ruthlessness. It should be noted that people like them are in the center of political power. It is not just that you can keep the flowers by just following the crowd. A little negligence will be Knocked down by huge waves or torn apart by whirlpools.

Take Chunli's incident as an example. It wouldn't be a problem in normal times. If you are punished, it will be fine after a while, but it must not happen now.

First of all, filial piety is the most important thing to the emperor. If it had not been for the Queen Mother to turn the tide and eliminate all resistance, he would not be able to sit on this throne. The Queen Mother has paid a lot for the Emperor, so if anyone shows a hint of disrespect to the Queen Mother at this time, Must be severely punished.

I heard that several generals from the Ministry of War just got together to drink a few glasses of wine, and then they were demoted from Jinling to guard the bitter cold land. I don't know if they can come back in this life.

Secondly, although the prince now has the upper hand, King Yu's strength cannot be underestimated. Both sides are trying to find faults in the other party. If King Yu catches Chunli's matter, he will definitely use it to expand it infinitely, and finally it will What the outcome will be, no one can predict now.

With Jinxuan's mind, she can completely analyze the pros and cons, so why should there be any hesitation?

Although the disappointment in Youshi's eyes only passed by for a moment, Ye Jiayao still keenly caught it.

It's not that she doesn't have enough crisis awareness. If it comes to a life-or-death situation, I believe she will do whatever it takes to protect the people she cherishes, but now, she doesn't think it's to that point yet.

Ye Jiayao thought for a while and said, "My wife thinks that we should first control the two of them and find ways to stabilize them. Everyone has weaknesses. As long as we find their weaknesses, the problem can be solved. Mother, this matter is up to my daughter-in-law." do it!"

Killing is not a skill. If you can solve the problem without bloodshed, that is the real good method.

This time it was Youshi's turn to hesitate. For the first time, she felt that she could not fully trust Jinxuan. What if she failed?

"Mom, don't worry. If it comes to that, my wife will know what to do." Ye Jiayao said firmly, her eyes were filled with silence, as quiet as the dark night, and no one could guess what was surging in the darkness.

Youshi sighed: "Go ahead, don't let me down, we can't afford the loss."

After coming out of Youshi, Ye Jiayao's order was immediately passed on.

Soon, a group of people quietly sneaked into the secluded house, put the people inside into a carriage, and left quietly.

In the afternoon, Ye Jiayao went out. After going around and making sure that no one was following her, she came to an underground gambling house.

This is Master Jiu's territory.

There are usually secret rooms in gambling houses, and the entrances and exits are located in unexpected places, making them very hidden.

The first person Ye Jiayao met was Grandma Fang.

Aunt Fang glared at Ye Jiayao angrily, but the panic in her heart was like an undercurrent that could not be calmed down. The Second Young Mistress could actually guess that Cui Yan was here, and her whereabouts were already very secretive. She and Cui Yan hardly went out, and had little contact with the princess. After moving here, she had not seen the princess. However, The second young lady still found her.

"Mother Fang, I haven't seen you for a long time. Are your ribs healed?" Ye Jiayao asked leisurely with a smile on her face.

When I asked about her ribs, Grandma Fang felt a dull pain in her ribs. She was old and her recovery was very slow. She had really suffered for several months.

Aunt Fang looked away and remained silent.

"Aunt Fang is already married, why are you still living in Jinling alone? I thought you would go to Yangzhou to join your nephew. I heard that when your eldest brother was still alive, he would come to Jinling to visit you every year. After your eldest brother passed away , let me be your nephew, your nephew is really thoughtful!" Ye Jiayao sighed.

The muscles on Nanny Fang's face twitched, and the fear in her heart became even worse. The Second Young Mistress actually checked her details.

"Your nephew should be your only relative in this world, right?" Ye Jiayao asked with a smile.

Aunt Fang clearly knew that she should calm down at this time. The more she cared about her family, the easier it was to be controlled by others. However, knowing was one thing, but whether she could do it was another. Aunt Fang said coldly: "What do you want? say what?"

Ye Jiayao smiled gently and said calmly: "Mother Fang is loyal. What I admire most are loyal subordinates, but what I dislike the most are those subordinates who are blindly loyal and do not distinguish between right and wrong. Even a dog will It also has its own opinion, even if the owner gives it a piece of feces, it can also eat it as meat bones, and the dog can still tell the difference between meat bones and feces."

The corners of Nanny Fang's mouth twitched more and more frequently, and her face turned pale with anger. The Second Young Mistress actually said that she was worse than a dog, which was such a disservice.

"I invited Nanny Fang to come over today. I believe Nanny Fang knows what is going on..."

Aunt Fang couldn't help but curse: Is this called a please? A group of people rushed in, tied them up, put rags in their mouths, put sacks on their heads, and carried them out. Is this called a treat? Is there such a way to ask for help?
