Chapter 75 Account Book

"What's more, the transaction is clear and real price. You spent money to buy the painting and dedicated it to your writing to gain a good reputation and make a profit from a low position. This is something you and I want to do. How is it considered fraud?"

Qin Yanghou smiled coldly: "When I was young, I was as clever as you. But why are there only a few officials? Li Mingji, you wouldn't feel that you can rise to the top by beating Yaoyao, right?"

He just said hello to Dali Temple and cured Li Mingji's crimes. Qin Yanghou just didn't want to make things too big, especially when it came to Emperor Yong's ears.

A door opened and the eunuch who had previously sent a message said, "Mr. Marquis, the Queen Mother let you in."

He looked at Li Mingji and added: "Mr. Li Yu, the princess will let you go in too."

The little princess was worried that he would be bullied by Qin Yanghou.

After thinking for a while, Li Mingji figured out what was going on, raised his lips and chuckled, "Okay."

The eunuch glanced at him strangely.

The Empress Dowager, Princess, and Marquis are all great figures with noble identities. How could he laugh when he was summoned by these three people?

Shu Yao felt that there would be nothing good about Qin Yanghou's appearance. As soon as he saw Li Mingji, he asked him to come to him. The empress dowager beside him blinked in an unknown way.

Qin Yanghou thought to himself that Li Mingji was so arrogant, most of the time he relied on Shu Yao's support. He lifted up his robe and knelt down and said, "Empress Dowager, you must make the decision for your minister!"

Emperor Yong recognized the Empress Dowager as his mother, and the late Princess Yongning was also recorded in the name of the Empress Dowager. In this way, the Hou of Qin Yang became half of the Empress Dowager's son-in-law, which was also considered to be related to relatives.

The Queen Mother was a little curious: "What did the Ai family do to your Lord?"

During this period, she devoted herself to recuperating in Yanshou Palace and stayed in the door and didn't even go to Emperor Yong's birthday party. There was a personal guard next to Shu Yao, which was enough to surprise her. Why did Qin Yanghou run to her and shout for justice again?

Shu Yao took the snow ball lying at her feet into her arms and casually touched its soft and fluffy hair. "Father, you have to think clearly, don't be able to say it, and make a joke in front of her grandmother."

Qin Yanghou couldn't hear her sarcastic spirit. He grinded his teeth and pointed at Li Mingji: "Yaoyao, listen to my father's advice. This son is vicious and has ulterior motives, so it's not advisable to stay for a long time!"

He was indeed here to trouble Li Mingji.

Shu Yao snorted coldly, "This princess should say this to her father!"

"Okay, okay," Seeing that the father and daughter were about to quarrel again, the empress dowager also had a headache, rubbed her temples and sighed, "Marquis Qin Yang, if you have anything to do, please make it clear. Why are you as noisy as a young boy at your age?"

He was partial to Shu Yao in his words and outside. Qin Yanghou felt it became more and more absurd and took out an account book from his sleeve: "Empress, you should remember that Yongning had left several shops for Yaoyao, one of which was called Mo Yuxuan, which specialized in selling four treasures of the study."

"A few days ago, in order to help me share my worries, my concubine ordered Mo Yuxuan to collect gifts for His Majesty. Li Mingji deceived the shopkeeper Mo Yuxuan and asked him to buy his "Hanshan Map" for a high price of 10,000 taels of silver!"

He opened the account book and his voice trembled with emotion. "The paintings of ordinary famous artists are only a thousand taels. My shopkeeper doesn't understand the market. Can Li Mingji not know what the value of his paintings are? Mo Yuxuan has been making ends meet in recent years, and has had such a large amount of money to buy materials. Isn't this vicious?"

Shu Yao was curious about why Li Mingji's painting fell into the hands of Qin Yanghou, but this time she understood and couldn't help laughing, "Why do you want to slap the fat man in the face without this ability? Father, you won't want to get this money back, right?"

Li Mingji's painting was sold to Qin Yanghou for ten thousand taels? This is really surprising. She is worthy of being her personal bodyguard, so promising. Qin Yanghou himself couldn't afford the money and came to the empress dowager to sell miserable things. He was so embarrassed.

"Of course not," said Qin Yanghou in a deep voice, "Yaoyao, you are young and ignorant. You don't know that Li Mingji's move was a fraud. It not only destroyed the rules of market transactions, but also ignored the laws of the Great Yong. This marquis just wanted him to return the money he shouldn't have obtained, so he would not care about it."

Shu Yao scratched Xuetuan's chin and said with a lazy voice, "My father is in Hanlin Academy, wouldn't he know how popular Qingyan is in the capital? There are many people who are willing to spend a lot of money on his paintings. In my opinion, it was because he thought about friendship and sold less. My father couldn't afford to draw and wanted to draw. Isn't this a daydream?"

"……you!"

Qin Yanghou was so angry that he couldn't breathe, and his face turned red. How could his daughter talk to his father like this? I thought she would restrain herself after entering the palace, but she knew that she would become more lawless!

As for Li Mingji, who was at the center of the topic, he was not disgusted and stood casually behind Shu Yao, with a slight smile in his eyes. In his previous life, he fought a bloody path from the sea of ​​swords and fire, and took on everything himself. Now he realized that the feeling of being protected is so enjoyable.

Seeing the account book that Qin Yanghou was holding, Li Mingji bent his fingers and flicked it gently.

"Empress Dowager, please take a look at this account book first!" Qin Yanghou knew that Shu Yao was determined to protect Li Mingji to the end, and turned his attention to the Empress Dowager, "These shops were left to Yaoyao by Yongning. Yaoyao was squandering too much. Mo Yuxuan wanted to maintain the business and let her take it. How could he make a living in the capital?"

The female official took the account book from Qin Yanghou and handed it to the Empress Dowager. The snow ball in Shu Yao's arms moved his nose, suddenly stood up, and gently sniffed Shu Yao's fingers.

"Be good, don't make trouble," Shu Yao whispered, "I'll play with you later."

The snow ball meowed a little, a little restless.

The account book is the one that Shu Yao turned over a few days ago. The black handwriting clearly records the income and expenditure of Mo Yuxuan in the past year. For several months, it said "loss" and did not hand over the collection to Huaxi Palace.

The Queen Mother flipped through the account book, without any sorrow or joy.

She naturally had an impression of these shops. There were several of them that Emperor Yong gave her when Princess Yong got married. Later, Princess Yong died, and the shop was left for Shu Yao. The Queen Mother added two more shops, a total of five, Mo Yuxuan was one of them.

The young lady didn't know how to manage the shop, so she handed over the shop to the Qinyang Marquis' Mansion, and the empress dowager had not visited for many years. Mo Yuxuan is also a time-honored brand in the capital, so why is she so embarrassed?

"Snow ball!"

Shu Yao exclaimed, but saw Xue Tuan picking it up from her arms, passing over her, holding the account book in the empress dowager's hand, and jumping straight to the table!

With a "clang", the teapot on the table was knocked over and the account book fell to the ground. Shu Yao quickly stood up and picked up the wet Persian cat, but found that new handwriting appeared on the paper soaked in tea!
