Chapter 116 One More Chip
Aunt Chun's expression was mysterious.
She held Shen Yindi's hand and said in a low voice, "I heard that he is the Queen's nephew and the grandson of Academician Meng!"
Shen Yindi couldn't help but raise his eyebrows when he heard this. Is he such a powerful person?
No wonder he is so arrogant.
Shen Yindi is not very clear about the relationship between them, so she will have to ask Chu Yan about it later.
"I just heard it, I'm not sure." Aunt Chun didn't dare to conclude.
Shen Yindi thought, it seems that I have to investigate it carefully later.
"Don't worry, as long as we are here, we will never let them succeed!"
"Don't worry, Sister Zi Yan!" Shen Yindi looked at Zi Yan and comforted her.
"Thank you, Adi. I would rather die than go to that kind of place!" Zi Yan was very resolute.
Even though Yichunlou was originally a brothel, Aunt Chun never forced her to do anything here, let alone let her sell her body.
She mainly plays the piano.
This was also something she liked, and she didn't think there was anything wrong with it. She didn't care what others thought of her, and she never thought it was shameful to be in Yichunlou.
Aunt Chun and her sisters are all very nice to her, and she feels like this place is more like her home.
But the land of pleasure is different. All the girls who go there will sell their bodies.
It depends on how high a price the customer can offer.
Shen Yindi couldn't help but laugh: "Don't worry, I won't let you be robbed, and I won't let you die."
"I have just sent them to a meeting place. Boss Hua will feel uncomfortable for a while when he returns. He will not have the energy to come and snatch people away for the time being." She said confidently.
Chu Yan knew what his Adi meant by this. It must be that her medicine powder took effect.
Aunt Chun was stunned for a moment, but soon understood.
"Thank goodness you're here. Otherwise, who knows how Boss Hua would bully us?" she sighed.
In fact, all the girls who could be poached from Yichunlou had already been poached by her gentle place. The dozen girls who were left now were unwilling to leave.
They were not willing to give up and wanted to snatch Zi Yan away as well.
Before, the person they wanted most was Zi Yan, but no matter what conditions the other party offered, Zi Yan remained indifferent and refused to leave.
That’s why they came up with the overbearing method of robbing people!
"It's okay, don't worry. No one can force you to do anything you don't want to do in the future." Shen Yindi gave them a reassurance.
Today she came mainly to see the wine they brewed and some of the dishes.
If you want to run a restaurant, these two things are essential. They are the key to success.
The fruit wine has been brewed for more than ten days, and now it is crystal clear when poured out.
The aroma of wine overflows.
The results of the kitchen dish development are also very gratifying.
Aunt Chun hired a former imperial chef at a high price. Obviously, she had invested a lot of money in opening the restaurant.
The lobby has also been renovated these days.
The tables and chairs were all set, and the stage for the performance was also set up.
The preliminary preparations are basically ready.
Once the wine is brewed, you can open your business.
After staying in Yichun Building for more than an hour, Shen Yindi checked all the work that needed to be prepared. She still admired Aunt Chun's execution ability. And Liu Mei was also very capable.
If these two were placed in modern times, they would definitely be strong women.
It’s finally been decided, and we’ll be opening the business in the last half month!
The next half month was mainly spent on brewing wine.
After coming out of Yichun Tower, Shen Yindi was in a good mood. It was obvious that the previous episode did not affect her mood.
"Husband, do you know who the Queen's nephew that Aunt Chun just mentioned is? And who is Scholar Meng?" Shen Yindi had wanted to ask for a long time.
"Meng Shizhao. Scholar Meng is the Queen's father. He was one of the most important people who helped my father win the throne."
"Grand Scholar Meng has two sons and two daughters. Meng Shizhao is the child of his eldest son. However, his eldest son died in an accident at an early age. He has an arrogant personality and is a well-known playboy in the imperial capital."
"Even though his aunt was the queen, he didn't want to be an official. Instead, he started a business. But he mainly does business in Jiangnan. He is not in the imperial capital now."
"Maybe the Queen also told him not to do anything rash, otherwise it would implicate her and Chu Heng. So he spends very little time in the imperial capital."
“I wonder if anything has changed in recent years?”
Shen Yindi nodded thoughtfully.
"Just because a person is not in the imperial capital doesn't mean he won't do business in the imperial capital! We still have to investigate. If he is really the big boss behind the scenes, then we will have more bargaining chips in the future." Shen Yindi always thinks long-term.
"Well, I will ask Shadow to check it out."
His Royal Highness the King of Zhenbei missed Cangwu one day.
"You can ask Si Yin for help. It should be quick for Ting Yin Pavilion to investigate, right?"
"Let Shadow investigate. We have already troubled Pavilion Master Si Yin with many things." Chu Yan insisted.
"Okay, let Shadow check it out first."
Shen Yindi felt that there was nothing wrong in letting Si Yin investigate.
After all, Tingyin Pavilion specializes in this.
But she also understood Chu Yan's concerns, and she could talk to Si Yin privately later.
Moreover, he has a good relationship with Zi Yan during this period, and he would go to listen to her playing the piano whenever he has time. He should also pay attention to this matter.
"Should we go shopping or go back?" Shen Yindi asked Chu Yan's opinion.
"Let's walk a little longer. It's been a long time since I walked on the streets of the imperial capital like this." Chu Yan still felt deeply touched.
Shen Yindi smiled and said, "Okay, then take me for a walk."
It's a rare opportunity to go shopping alone with Chu Yan. It's not easy to go out, and it takes so long to put on makeup. Shen Yindi also feels that she can't go back easily.
"Okay." Chu Yan agreed with a smile.
He held Shen Yindi's hand, walked through the busy streets, and came to a place that looked like a park.
Shen Yindi raised her eyebrows. She had never been here before.
It is much quieter here, with not so many people, and there are pavilions and rockery.
"Did you come here often before?" Shen Yindi asked curiously, sitting in the pavilion, with one hand on the stone table.
Chu Yan stood there, tall and graceful.
He nodded: "Yes, go this way, and in another cup of tea you will reach the Imperial College. It's where I went to school before."
Shen Yindi raised her eyebrows. So that's it.
"I thought a prince like you would be taking classes in the palace."
"I lived in the palace when I was young, and went to the Imperial Academy when I was ten years old. My father wanted us to study with other students." Chu Yan seemed to be lost in some memories.
"Very good. Then you should be a top student, right?" Shen Yindi asked curiously.
"A top student?" Chu Yan was a little curious.
"He's the best student, and he gets first place in every subject." Shen Yindi explained to him with a smile.
"Indeed." Chu Yan nodded.
Shen Yindi knew that someone like Chu Yan had a face that looked like a top student.
Otherwise, how could he become the emperor's proudest son?
Shen Yindi wanted to ask something else, but at this moment a young and surprised female voice came: "Sister Shen?"
