Chapter 9 The Fate of Qianzhuang

"This..." Boss Yin was puzzled, and looked at Boss Qian in confusion.

Manager Qian had a sad expression on his face, "The master only said that he had to do this, and he never explained the reason."

Murong Yunshu nodded slightly, and handed him a letter, "This is news from the capital."

Director Qian opened the letter and read it, his face turned ashen, and the corners of his mouth trembled, "How, how, what happened..."

"The imperial court intends to expropriate the HSBC bank..." After the bank manager finished reading the first few words, he was too shocked to speak.

"The imperial court wants to carry out reforms and plans to issue small-denomination official banknotes, but this must be backed by a powerful bank. HSBC Bank is the only national bank in the Daye Dynasty. Once it becomes owned by the imperial court, the reform will be successful. half."

Manager Qian suddenly realized, "All the masters are in a hurry to empty out the bank, so that even if the imperial court confiscates it, it will only be an empty shelf with heavy debts."

"Miss, why would you think of sending someone to the capital to find out the news?" Manager Yin was puzzled.

"It was my cousin's surprise visit that reminded me." Murong Yunshu said, "I have never figured out why my father emptied the bank until my cousin came to Jinling a few days ago and made me realize that this matter might be related to the court, so I sent someone to investigate."

After Hua Lingtian went to the capital four years ago, he never returned to Jinling. They have always exchanged letters. Even when his father passed away, he only sent letters to comfort him, because the Queen Mother did not allow him to leave the palace.But a few days ago, he suddenly left the palace to come to Jinling, presumably because of the consent of the Queen Mother, and the reason for the Queen Mother's nod must have something to do with the Murong Mansion.

Sure enough, according to the intelligence sent by the spies, the mission of Hualing Tianlai to Jinling was to persuade her to hand over the HSBC bank.Obviously, his marriage proposal was a bargaining chip to persuade her, but she refused.

Thinking of this, Murong Yunshu's face revealed a look of helplessness. The imperial palace is really too scary. In just four years, the brother who was originally close can play tricks on her.

Manager Yin: "Then what should we do? We can't sit still and wait for the bank to be taken away by the court, can we?"

Hearing this, Murong Yunshu's clear and beautiful face showed a coldness for the first time, there was a little anger in her clear phoenix eyes, and there was an inviolable authority in her faint voice, "Is it possible that the things in my Murong Mansion can be conquered if you want?" Signed."

Manager Qian: "But we can't beat the imperial court." Even the treacherous and cunning master can only accept his fate, who can save Qianzhuang?
"We can't fight, but someone can."

"Who?"

"God."

Manager Qian was petrified in an instant, it's already at this stage, how can the lady still have the mood to joke, and still look serious...

After seeing off the two managers, Murong Yunshu went back to the yard to bask in the sun, this time with an extra book of poems in hand.

"Miss, drink tea." Lu'er feebly handed over the freshly brewed Zhuyeqing with a sad expression.The lady is too idle, too idle, so idle.

"Yeah." Murong Yunshu happened to be thirsty, took the tea and poured it into her mouth, "Ah..." She jumped up from the stone bench suddenly, jumped two steps away, the beautiful ceramic cup fell on the book, and the tea It was splashed everywhere, but fortunately, Lu'er had quick eyesight and quick hands, and caught the cup before it rolled to the ground.

"You want to murder your lord?" Murong Yunshu reproached, sticking out her scalded tongue.

"I didn't know you would drink in such a hurry." Lu'er also stuck out her tongue, lowered her head and chuckled.Ha, Miss Murong, the head of the Calm and Calm School, has finally jumped!It’s really God’s eye-opening and Buddha’s light shining everywhere!

"I don't even know, what's the use of you?"

As soon as Lu'er heard this, she became anxious, "Miss, don't abandon me! From now on, I will definitely think what Miss thinks, what Miss Si thinks, and be the roundworm in your stomach."

"You cursed me for having roundworms in my stomach?"

"The heavens can learn from me. Even if I curse myself, I dare not curse you, miss." Lu'er wanted to hang the southeast branch very much, very much.

Murong Yunshu raised his eyebrows, believing her, picked up the wet poetry collection, gently shook off the tea on the book, put it on a clean place on the stone table, spread it out to dry, then turned and left.The arty interest was quenched by a cup of tea.

"Miss!" Lu'er screamed, pointing to the collection of poems: "There are words in the book!"

"Is it still called a book if there are no words on it?" Murong Yunshu said disapprovingly, and continued walking without looking back.

"It's not that kind of word...it's that kind of word..." Lu'er couldn't speak clearly, so she simply ran over and pulled her back to the table, pointed to the dusty gray writing on the book and said, "Look."

Murong Yunshu was very surprised. The place where the tea was wet on the book did have words printed, which looked like the word 'sword'.

"Bring a basin of clean water."

"it is good."

Soon, Lu'er brought a basin of clear water and put it on the stone table.

Murong Yunshu carefully tore apart the pages of the poetry collection, and then immersed them in the water one by one.There was no writing on the first few sheets, some writing on the middle, and no writing on the last few sheets.

Putting all the words together in order is... Fifty million silver is hidden in the famous sword villa.

5000 million!
It happened to be the financial loophole of the bank.

Murong Yunshu suddenly realized that her father had hidden the silver in Mingjian Villa. No wonder she dug Murong Mansion three feet and found no money. No wonder Mingjian Villa was in a hurry to withdraw...

It's just that she doesn't understand, why didn't her father tell her directly?

"I heard that the prince has a strange disease."

"Yeah." Left-handed Bai Zi.

"The emperor's list is posted on the street, and the imperial court offers a reward of a thousand taels of gold to find a famous doctor."

"Oh." Heizi on the right hand.

"Miss, did you already know about this?"

"Not too early, I learned about it three days ago." It was sent together with the news that the imperial court wanted to expropriate the bank.

It's not too early!Lu'er pursed her lips, "The crown prince is the cousin, why are you not nervous at all?"

"I can't die again, why are you nervous?"

"How do you know you won't die?"

Murong Yunshu slowly put down a sunspot on the chessboard, and said indifferently: "I know the person who poisoned him." To be precise, he met and knew the name.
