Chapter 186: The capital does not support idle people

The attendants went to passers-by to ask for the address of Mr. Tingshu. Most of them refused to tell them. A few people were willing to say and asked for three taels of silver.

  Several three taels were waiting . Yinzi went out and learned the addresses of several storytellers. When he looked for them, he found that it was either a casino or a brothel, or a shop or a slum. It was not the storyteller's address at all

  . Prime Minister Qin was afraid that he wanted to kill thirty of their followers,

  so they asked passers-by for the address of the storyteller. This time they were smarter and could give them money, but they had to follow them to their destination and make sure that the address was correct. I would give him money.

  At first, the passers-by were reluctant. There was not much in the capital, but the money was the most.   But

  when the money reached ten taels, some passers-by became interested.

Thirty followers found the addresses of several storytellers, but they

  found nothing .

  When the passers-by who led the way saw that something was wrong, they immediately took their ten taels of silver and took advantage of the lack of reaction from the followers. Come here and run away quickly.

  Because the passers-by are afraid that the servants will not find the storyteller and refuse to give him the money.

  Then they will

  lose their reputation and will not get the money .

  That is impossible.

  The capital doesn't support idlers.

  Seeing that the one hundred taels of silver were gone and the storyteller hadn't caught a single one, the thirty attendants were stunned   as

  they walked to the gathering place in despair and fear.

For an hour, they decided to continue pretending to look for the storyteller, but they couldn't believe that they couldn't find any

  storyteller. They didn't return to the Prime Minister's Mansion until it was almost dark. They couldn't go back now, lest Prime Minister Qin think they were lazy and couldn't find a storyteller on purpose

  . , several groups of men wearing the clothes of the Prime Minister's servants appeared in the streets and alleys. They kept running, asking people, and looking for people.

  This matter was pointed out by the people, and

  the thirty followers talked about it. I don't care, as long as I don't get beaten when I go back,

  Prime Minister

  Qin learned that the thirty followers he sent out early in the morning had not found a storyteller yet, and they were still running around on the streets, affecting people's business.

  Not only were they criticized, but the Prime Minister's Mansion was also scolded thousands of times by the people.

  Is that okay?

  Prime Minister Qin immediately sent the housekeeper to call back the thirty boys, but he did not dare to punish them and only scolded them a few times. In other words, he kicked the attendants a few times and let them go.

  If he punishes the attendants and makes the matter bigger, I'm afraid there will be no place for his old face to show up tomorrow morning, and he will be impeached by the   civil

  servants.

It was hard to swallow. Prime Minister Qin was angry all night. He was late for the morning meeting and was scolded by the emperor.

  Then several civil servants took turns to impeach Miss Qin and Shen Shaosheng the day before, and he sent people to arrest him yesterday. The matter about the storyteller

  made Emperor Long Yan displeased, and he scolded Prime Minister Qin for a quarter of an hour before he got over it. Finally, he granted marriage to Shen Shaosheng and Qin Manting

  in half a month, just one day before the Prime Minister's house was to be raided.

  The arrangement was perfect.

  After hearing the decree of marriage, Prime Minister Qin fainted with anger,

  but several civil servants rushed out to help him in time, preventing him from falling to the ground in shame.

  "Huh? Did the old prime minister faint because he was too happy? Or... he was not satisfied with my will?" The emperor raised his eyebrows and slammed the folding book on the table.

  He is still very angry now, because a few months ago, Prime Minister Qin had been trying to give Miss Qin to the Crown Prince as his concubine.

  He had investigated Qin Manting, a person who tortured and killed small animals since she was a child, and even killed her servants at will when she grew up.

  How can such a person be a princess?

  Be the future mother of a country?

  Don't torture the maids and eunuchs in the palace after death when they are unhappy, and torture countless ordinary people to death when they go out to play in the palace.

  The country built by his ancestors cannot be destroyed by a witch who has brought disaster to the country.     "..." Prime Minister Qin was so angry that a mouthful of blood rushed to his throat, but he did not dare to spit it out.

  "Your Majesty, Prime Minister Qin is so happy. He has always loved Miss Qin the most. Nothing can compare with Miss Qin's lifelong happiness."

  "Yes, it is a beautiful thing when lovers finally get married. Prime Minister Qin, Mrs. I was so excited that I fainted.

  "Thank you, Prime Minister Qin! The emperor is so kind to you. I can't even ask for this kind of thing!"

  Prime

  Minister Qin was so angry! Blood spurted out, and he fainted without saying "Thank you Lord for your kindness".

  Fortunately, he was supported by several civil servants.

  When Shen Hong saw this scene, he couldn't stop laughing.

  The emperor glared at him to signal him not to be too arrogant.

  But the emperor himself was also very happy. His shoulders were shaking, he was stroking his beard to hide his smile, and he didn't make a sound.

  Shen Hong had done him a favor by settling Miss Qin's marriage.

  Otherwise, Prime Minister Qin had been forcing him to marry Qin Manting as the Crown Princess for the past six months. He almost wanted to have the Prime Minister's house confiscated and beheaded.

  If he hadn't wanted to expose the person behind the Prime Minister's Mansion, he wouldn't have allowed Prime Minister Qin to be arrogant and domineering for so long.

  ...

  The news of the marriage had reached the Prime Minister's Mansion in less than half an hour.

  Qin Manting dragged her weak body and red and swollen eyes to kneel on the ground to thank her.

  She cried with tears all over her face, hating God for being unfair to her.

  It is obvious that she wants to marry His Highness the Crown Prince, become the Crown Princess, the future Queen, and the Queen Mother.

  As a result...

  there is nothing now.

  As soon as the father-in-law who delivered the decree left the Prime Minister's Mansion, she cried so hard that she started cursing people like crazy, starting from Shen Shaosheng to Shen Zhiyuan.

  She also scolded Shen Hong and the emperor. Her parents quickly covered her mouth and asked the servants to escort her into the boudoir and not allow her to leave.

  Restricted for half a month until the wedding day.

  ...

  The Duke who delivered the decree then arrived at the Duke Protector's Mansion and heard that the imperial edict was written by the emperor himself. Both Shen Zhongsheng and Lao Yang thought that the emperor had discovered the excellence of their grandson and was going to confer an official title on him.

  Shen Shaosheng's right eyelid kept twitching until he heard the imperial edict, and he jumped from the bed and fell to the ground.

  "Imperial decree? What do you mean? It can't be to give me a promotion or title!" He shook his head.

  He knew his abilities and details so well that he didn't even believe it, let alone the emperor.

  There isn't much in the capital, but there are so many talented people, and they are as endless as the waves.

  The waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead, and the new people in the world drive out the old ones.

  Shen Shaosheng quickly put on his outer robe, tied up his hair casually, and hurried to the lobby.

  At this time, Shen Zhongsheng and others were already kneeling in front of the edict-carrying father-in-law and had begun to read out the edict.

  Shen Shaosheng knelt at the back, listening to the content of the imperial edict.

  Marriage?

  Him and Qin Manting?

  how so?

  Aren't things settled?

  When Shen Zhongsheng heard that the imperial edict was to marry Shen Shaosheng and Qin Manting, he jumped up excitedly.

  "Hahaha... I knew my grandson was great. This was a marriage granted by the emperor. Even the emperor approved of their marriage."

  "Grandpa, kneel down quickly and thank me." Shen Qingqing pulled the hem of Shen Zhongsheng's clothes and whispered. he.

  "Yes, yes, thank you Lord for your grace."
