Chapter 245 Treasure Hunt

Mi August opened the letter and read every line of it.

Mi Yixian wrote a lot, almost everything that happened after he returned to Fengxia City from Beiyuan City was written in the letter.

In just a few months, after recovering from physical illness, Mi Yixian regained his status as the eldest son of the Mi family, and gradually eroded the power of Mi Songbu, the head of the family, and let Mi Song go far in advance.

The meaning of abdication.

As for the concubine and concubine Mi Zhenbang who had murdered their family, Mi Yixian treated him in his own way. Both of them were seriously ill and unable to go out.

Mi Yixian said in the letter that he planned to make his father, his concubine, and his concubine's family happy. His father and concubine always said that they were the true love, and it was the Yun family that blocked them, so he would give the true lovers a chance to let his father

Take this true love and your beloved son out for a two-night trip.

Of course, if Mi Songbu chooses to take his true love away, he will lose everything in the Mi family. From now on, Mi Yixian will be in charge of the Mi family and will not give them any support.

And if Mi Songbu refuses to give up his glory and wealth for true love, he will just struggle to death for a while, and Mi Yixian will eventually snatch everything from his hands.

Everything that happened in the Mi family could not be hidden from the uncle who was a bachelor in the State of Yi, but his uncle had no intention of stopping Mi Yixian's actions.

This is natural. The reason why Mi Yixian was able to seize power so quickly was because of the help of the fourth prince Yi Zhen.

The fourth prince is currently the monarch's favorite son, and Uncle Mi knows how to read the situation.

Furthermore, the monarch began to implement the night tour law after returning from Beiyuan City, and several accompanying night envoys settled in the Lingji Duwei Mansion. The mysterious legends about Beiyuan City and the name of Mi August were also secretly passed down among the powerful people in the capital.

.

Everything has been doomed for the final outcome of the fight between Mi Yixian and his son. Uncle Mi received the letter for help from his younger brother and threw it directly into the brazier. Without his younger brother's knowledge, Uncle Mi revised a letter and gave it to Mi Yixian.

The younger brother sold it to show that he was optimistic about his nephew.

Mi Songbu didn't know about this, but even if he knew it, it would only make him hate and suffer more.

After talking about the mess in the Mi family, Mi Yixian later mentioned the cooperation with Kering Shipping.

Kaiyun Shipping Company is the property of the head of the Wen family, and is currently a by-product of Siye Mansion. After the spider disaster, only Wen Qingpo was left in the Wen family, and Wen Qingpo was planted with the ecstasy seed by Zuo Si.

He is one of his disciples, and his status is completely incomparable to that of Pei Rongrong, and he is like a puppet.

In the past few days, Wen Qingpo took over Kaiyun Trading Company and has been running business abroad for a long time and has not returned to Beiyuan City. The business is doing well.

After reading the letter, Mi August had no intention of replying.

She asked the housekeeper, "What's going on with Guan Feilian?"

During the time she was reading the letter, the housekeeper of the temple had already heard almost everything about the conversation between Guan Feilian and Shen Li, and then conveyed the main content to Mi August.

"Guan Feilian is the governor of Qufeng City. Qufeng City is a neighbor of Beiyuan City. The winter this year is not going well. I came to ask Beiyuan City for a way to save the people."

"Is Shen Li receiving him?"

"yes."

According to Shen Li's sentiment of serving the country and the people, Mi August could already predict the result.

"Let him spend the Night Parade in Beiyuan City first. After that, he will still want Beiyuan City's method of saving people. Just like Pei Yan, he will fully cooperate with Si Yefu's actions and open a branch in Qufeng City."

As Mi August expected, Shen Li wanted to see Mi August after talking to Guan Feilian. However, Mi August was not seen, so the housekeeper conveyed Mi August's intention.

The way the palace steward communicates is to tell the truth directly.

Shen Li was used to this, but it was the first time for Guan Feilian and his wife to encounter this kind of situation. Fortunately, their years of training made them just stiff and not lose their composure.

Shen Li received the message and thanked him, "I'm sorry to trouble the night manager."

When Shen Li sat down again, Guan Feilian asked solemnly: "Who is the night manager?"

Shen Li said: "The manager of Si Ye Mansion only serves the two highnesses."

Guan Feilian nodded and asked no more questions, even though he was filled with curiosity.

Shen Li said: "Have you two found a place to live in the city? Or you can stay in Si Ye Mansion temporarily."

Guan Feilian: "Thank you very much, Director, for your kindness. My husband and I have already booked an inn."

After witnessing the elusive scene of the Palace Butler just now, Guan Feilian felt uneasy with nowhere to hide. He was really not used to the feeling of no privacy. Even if he wanted to know more about Si Ye Mansion, he couldn't live here.

Shen Li did not force them to stay and sent them out.

The couple who left Siye Mansion continued to stroll around the streets of Beiyuan City.

Because the Winter Breaking Festival is just around the corner, every household in the city has begun to hang lanterns or place small stoves in front of their doors. Some even light a fire before the festival arrives. You can feel it when you get close to the stove. Warmth.

Looking at the people of Beiyuan City, they are in good physical condition visible to the naked eye. The elderly and children are wearing winter clothes, and their faces are rosy and healthy. You can tell the difference from people from other cities at a glance.

Some villagers from the outer city who were afraid of the cold cautiously approached the stove outside the shop to keep warm. The waiter came out without chasing them away, and even brought out a large pot of hot tea for them to drink, but it was just a bowl.

Rao was so flattered by the group of warmers that he thought the waiter was here to drive them away.

The waiter said: "This stove is burning for people to keep warm. I don't think you are evil people. You will just stand aside and not disturb the guests coming and going. Just a pot of hot water is nothing."

Several people thanked me profusely.

The waiter waved his hand, "You don't need to thank me. The hot water on the stove belongs to the owner, but he is kind-hearted. However, you should not push yourself too far and do some annoying things just because the owner is kind-hearted."

"No, no, we will leave after a while." Several people said in unison.

The waiter saw that they were so aware of current affairs, they looked honest, and their clothes were old but clean, so he relaxed again and said, "There's no need to worry, we won't chase people away. If you are interested, you can also listen to books outside."

After saying that, the waiter went back to work.

The few people who were standing around the stove gathered together and started drinking hot water. It didn't matter if they took turns taking turns, and each person finished his bowl quickly.

The first man to drink water put away the kettle and bowl, and opened the bag he was carrying. Inside was the carbon he bought.

He took a piece of it and put it into the burning furnace. The people walking next to him saw it and said nothing.

The man tied the package again, handed the kettle and bowl to another man, and asked him to return them to the waiter in the store.

After doing this, the group left again.

They came to the city just to take advantage of the low-price trading days during the Winter Break to buy some supplies for the winter.

Guan Feilian, who stopped not far away, looked at the leaving people for a long time.

Ruan Yuan held his arm and said, "Husband, why don't you buy a lantern with me?"

"Okay." Guan Feilian said.

In fact, the Winter Breaking Festival is not only held in Beiyuan City, Qufeng City also has this tradition.

The two celebrate the festival in similar ways.

It is precisely because they are similar that the differences can be seen more clearly.

In the next two days, Beiyuan City became even more lively. There were not enough guest rooms in the inns in the city for outsiders to live, so some people who did not want to have fun had to stay in the brothel Chuguan.

It can be heard from the conversations of outsiders that the reason why they came to Beiyuan City was the influence of the royal team's visit. With the return of the royal team, rumors about Beiyuan City have been spreading all over the country in the past few months, attracting many people.

All the curious tourists arrived.

If it hadn't been for the severe cold winter, there would have been even more people coming.

But soon after, those who did not come at this time regretted it greatly, while those who came wished they could come here every year, leaving a deep and indelible mark in their memory.

Lanterns hang in the streets, and stoves go from house to house.

It was obviously a severe winter in a border town, but under such an environment, even the thick-clothed people felt sweaty.

The performance team organized by the government officials passed by on the long street playing gongs and drums, and the strong dancers holding torches danced with great force.

Both sides were crowded with people cheering and cheering.

When the show team has gone away, new prices are placed above the goods placed in the store, which are so low that outsiders can't believe it.

Among them, there was a foreign businessman who wanted to take the opportunity to make a big purchase, but the store owner drove him away angrily, refusing to accept selfish customers like him on this holy holiday.

There are more private stalls set up outside, where you can exchange items or buy them with money.

What makes outsiders find it interesting and amusing is that there are even children and teenagers in this stall.

"Little girl, does this stall belong to you?" a group of foreign businessmen asked.

Chen Erya nodded and said crisply: "Well, do you want to buy it, sir?"

The businessman asked: "What are you selling?"

Chen Erya said: "Jushou medicinal powder can strengthen the body, treat wind, cold and rheumatism, reduce inflammation and stop bleeding."

"Haha." The businessman couldn't help but laugh, "It sounds like it can be used for anything. It's like a magical elixir."

Chen Erya didn't hear his joke and explained seriously, "It's not as good as the elixir. I can now make some medicinal powder on my own. The effect is less than one-third of what Feng Mingzi and the others make, but it is as good as the golden sore medicine in the drugstore."

, the medicine for dispelling dampness is equivalent, it can be taken internally or applied externally, and it is not painful.”

She spoke eloquently, and the businessman was in a good mood, so he gave a lunch to a little girl, "Oh? So good, then I am just lucky. How much does a pack of this powder cost?"

Chen Erya agreed on a price, which was the cost plus 10%.
