Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife - Chapter 194
[Chapter 194 The famous flower chooses the owner, throwing stones to ask the way]
When contacting Wu Minzhi this time, Mu Yunyao decided to let Qi Ming come forward. After all, she made too much noise in Jingling City, and rashly intervening in the salt administration would easily arouse other people’s defenses, while Qi Ming was a face, and he was going to The Yi Baoxuan is about to open, and it is still the right name for Niyunfang. Let others guess, and it will not be linked to her.
Qi Ming changed into the clothes Mu Yunyao had prepared, and took the guards that King Yue sent him, and swaggered directly into Yangzhou City. At this time, the city of Yangzhou was very lively. Because of the birthday of one of Wu Min, it seemed that the entire city of Yangzhou had come alive. There were endless people carrying gifts on the streets, and some people even made trouble because of the order in which they entered the palace. .
When Qi Ming arrived, there was already a long queue in front of the entire Wu Mansion. Seeing him swaggering inward, many gift-givers murmured in secret: What is this person’s identity, and there is no need to line up?
The people who can appear here are not stupid, and no one asks rashly. Instead, they took advantage of the time when the servants entered the manor to report. They came forward to exchange famous posts. Actions and eyes are full of arrogance, making people even more afraid to underestimate.
Soon, the servants who entered the manor to report came back, and saluted Qi Ming respectfully: “I have seen Master Qi, our master invites you to enter the mansion.”
Qi Ming nodded arrogantly, glanced proudly at the gift-giving people around him, and walked slowly into the Wu Mansion. The post he was holding this time was specially prepared by King Yue. His identity was from Kyoto, and he was vaguely involved with the people in the First Prince’s Mansion. Whether it was true or false, at least as soon as his identity came out, he would let him People dare not underestimate.
After Qi Ming entered the mansion, Wu Minzhi came out to greet him in person.
Wu Minzhi in front of him looked to be in his forties, his face was white and he didn’t need a gentle breath, and he acted elegantly in his demeanor.
“I’ve seen Chief Wu.” Qi Ming bowed and saluted, his movements were very thoughtful, but his tone was not flattering or flattering at all, but instead carried a hint of imperceptible arrogance.
Wu Minzhi saw his look in his eyes, and thought a little more in his heart: “This is Mr. Qi, you don’t need to be so polite, come to the palace to watch and drink tea.”
This Qi Ming suddenly sent a famous post just before his birthday banquet was held. There were many such posts in previous years, but all the greeting cards sent by this Qi Ming were actually made of red gold, and the handwriting carved on it was vigorous and powerful. It seems that it came from everyone’s hands. What’s even more strange is that the handwriting on it seems to be familiar to him. Later, after thinking about it for a long time, he remembered that the handwriting he had seen when he was in Kyoto.
At this time, the hall was already full of salt merchants from all over the world. Each of these people was a tyrant from all over the country. If they were added together, a cough would make the entire Jiangnan tremble. Although the merchants are at the bottom right now, the influence of these people is already inseparable from the officialdom, and no one dares to underestimate their power.
Qi Ming walked into the hall, but there was no shyness on his face, he looked around the hall very generously for a week, and greeted everyone in a natural manner: “I heard that Jiangnan salt merchants have extraordinary demeanor, and seeing it today is really eye-opening. , I have met all of you gentlemen.”
His attitude made everyone puzzled. In addition, Wu Minzhi went out to greet him in person, so he didn’t dare to ask for it. They all stood up and greeted him: “You’re welcome, you’re welcome, I don’t know where this gentleman is from?”
“Wei Mo people, born ordinary, are not worth mentioning.” Qi Ming shook his head quickly, “I came in a hurry today, and I didn’t have time to bring any precious gifts. I heard that Leader Wu loves flowers and plants, and accidentally got a peony, which looks very strange. , I borrowed flowers to offer Buddha, and wished the leader of Wu wealth and safety.”
“Peony?” Some of the salt merchants present knew Wu Minzhi’s hobbies, and most of the gifts given on weekdays were flowers and plants. Maybe Wu Minzhi was really tempted, but very few of them heard what he sent. It is a peony. Thinking about the current season, I am already disappointed. What can I appreciate about the peony at this time?
Qi Ming didn’t pay attention to the various sights around him, and clapped his hands to let the servants carry his gift up.
What the next person lifted up was a wooden box, which looked more than half the height of a person. It was made of ordinary camphor wood, and it looked ordinary.
The expressions of the people around became more and more strange. I had seen many people who gave peonies, but this was the first time they saw peonies in boxes. Some people even let out a chuckle, which made the atmosphere in the hall even more strange.
Qi Ming didn’t care, but the smile on his face was still the same: “The flowers I sent are not ordinary, they can find their own owners, so you should come and bring them out, the famous flower, if it is the leader Wu. If I can’t get his approval, I can only reluctantly take it back and find the real flower lover.”
Wu Minzhi frowned. Today is his birthday, and he came in a hurry. The only thing he brought was a pot of peonies, which made him feel unhappy. Now, this person also asked him to bring out the flowers himself, and he also implied in his words. He is not a real flower lover, which made him feel disgusted directly in his heart.
“Mr. Qi, since you gave me a gift, you should bring out the flowers.”
Hearing Wu Minzhi’s words, Qi Ming’s brows wrinkled, and he raised his hand to signal the servant to lift up the box: “It seems that the gift I sent did not enter the eyes of the leader of Wu, since I don’t give it, I would take the liberty to disturb it. Farewell. I thought I was a real flower lover, but I don’t even know about the choice of a famous flower, hehe…” He turned around and walked towards the door.
Wu Minzhi was stunned for a moment, the expression in his eyes changed for a moment, and he got up and chased after him: “Mr. Qi stay.”
Qi Ming stood on his heels, but the smile on his face was much lighter: “I don’t know what advice Chief Wu has?”
“I don’t dare to give advice. I was rude just now. Please don’t mind Mr. Qi. The visitor is a guest. If I let you leave like this, it would be because someone from me, Wu, was not well entertained!” He has not yet found out his identity. , If you let him leave like this, it will be bad if there are branches in the future.
Qi Ming’s expression eased, and a few people chased after him in the hall. They all smiled and asked Qi Ming to go back.
When Qi Ming returned to the hall again, everyone’s eyes fell directly on the box. They wanted to know what it means to choose a famous flower. If the person in front of him was just bluffing, they would definitely let him teach him a lesson.
“Leader Wu please open the box and invite Peony out.”
Wu Minzhi nodded, opened the box with a little curiosity, and found that the box was still covered with a layer of black silk.
Qi Ming looked extremely nervous, and repeatedly urged on one side: “Leader Wu must be careful, and don’t hurt Mudan Linghua.”
“Don’t worry, Mr. Qi, I have taken care of flowers and plants for many years, and this is still…” Wu Minzhi was half-speaking, and suddenly stood there, staring at the peony in disbelief, “This…”
