Not long after, Miqing and the plump woman came out together. When she saw Zhu Song, she could clearly see that Miqing's body had matured a lot and her whole body was shaken. It seemed that Zhu Song's appearance was beyond her expectation.
"Long time no see, Sister Miqing!" Perhaps in order to ease the awkward atmosphere, Xu Miaojin spoke first: "When I left Nanjing that day, my sister was angry. Now, has the anger subsided?"
Bitterness appeared on the enchanted face, she shook her head, first saluted Zhu Song and Xu Miaojin, and then said: "Sister Miaomiao, at that time, the younger sister was still young, so she made a mistake, and I have not done it all these years. I have been cultivating my body and mind all the time, so my little sister has long forgotten what happened that day, how can there be fire in my heart?"
"Sister..." Xu Miaojin wanted to say something else.
"Okay!" Zhu Song stretched out his hand to Han Qingshan with a cold face.
Han Qingshan understood, took a scroll of bright yellow imperial decree from a guard next to him, opened it and read out: "The shopkeeper of Jiaxing Mansion of Ming Dynasty went to Haicheng to accept the decree with affection!"
At the beginning, when she heard what the woman said, Mi Qing thought it was a joke, but now she couldn't help being stunned when she heard Han Qingshan's words.
Zhu Song waved his hand, and said sharply, "I accept the order with obsession!"
"Minutes pray for the angel to read the imperial decree!" Miqing led a large group of mistresses and girls in Haicheng to kneel down in unison.
Han Qingshan's face was serious, and he read out: "Bong, Tian Chengyun: Here is an envoy sent by the Eastern Roman Empire to my Ming Dynasty..."
He talked about the competition between the Eastern Roman Empire and the Ming Dynasty in detail, and at the end read: "I heard that there is a place in Jiaxing Prefecture called Xiahai City. Everyone in Xiahai City is fascinated by music, art, singing and poetry. This second item Let's go to Haicheng to compete with others! The victory or defeat of this test will be called Ming Ming's reputation, ten thousand, ten thousand!"
"Everyone, Miqing, accept the decree!" Putting away the imperial decree in his hand, Han Qingshan handed it to Miqing.
Mi Qing just knelt, seemed to be stunned, and did not raise her head to accept the imperial edict.
"Miqing, what do you mean?" Zhu Song frowned, "Why didn't you accept the order?"
"Yes, sister." Xu Miaojin's face became anxious: "Sister, don't be arrogant."
Mi Qing was still the same as before, just knelt blindly and never spoke.
"Do you know that if you don't accept the order, you will be disrespectful and disrespectful. Not only will you be ransacked, but even those of you who went to Haicheng will be implicated!"
Zhu Song said with a cold face, "Of course, you don't have to mind the life and death of outsiders. After all, they don't have the right to interfere with your choice."
Zhu Song's words were a little mechanical, or rather cold.
There is no way, since he came to Xiahai City, he has been disappointed by both the gatekeepers and the people in charge in Xiahai City. Can this kind of person with flaws in morality and conduct be able to perfectly present his music skills?
Zhu Song even began to regret, leaving the music art competition to Miqing.
"My lord, sister Miao Miao, how dare my little sister resist the decree?" Mi Qing looked up at Zhu Song and Xu Miaojin, and said, "My little sister is just afraid. There are countless famous people in my Ming Dynasty. Why did Long live choose us to go to Haicheng?"
"Fame is tiring!" Xu Miaojin glanced at Zhu Song out of the corner of her eye, and then said in a deep voice, "But sister, with your talent and accomplishments in music, there is no one else in the whole of Ming Dynasty, right? How could it be ranked in the top three! This time the Eastern Roman Empire proposed a comparison quite suddenly, and Long Live just thought of you all!"
"How is it?" Zhu Song said, "Will you accept it?"
"Folk girl accepts the order!" The situation is stronger than others, even if she doesn't want to accept it, she has to accept it, "Long live, long live, long live!"
All the people in the room knelt on the ground in unison, shouting long live three times.
"Okay." When Miqing and the others stood up, Zhu Song stared at Miqing and said, "The official business is over, shall we settle some private matters next?"
Before Mi Qing could speak, the plump woman who was following Mi Qing's body shook, and paleness instantly spread over her face.
"My lord, my daughter, my daughter is convicted, and I ask my lord to save my life for the sake of everyone who loves you!"
That plump, plump woman didn't have the half confidence she had just now, but she had a look of horror on her face.
"Hmph, you've done this kind of thing many times under the banner of this king, right?" Zhu Song looked at the plump woman coldly, and said, "What's the relationship between this king and Miqing, isn't it? Outsiders can talk about it at will. Also, the name of the king is not so easy to use, you may say that you are infatuated, how do you plan to compensate the king?"
"Min, Minnv..." The woman was trembling, unable to utter a single word for a while.
On the other hand, Mi Qing was silent for a while, then stood up and said, "I don't know what compensation you want, my lord?"
Regarding the rumored relationship between Zhu Song and Miqing, Miqing obviously knew about it, if it wasn't for her indulgence, how could the servants in Xiahai City be so rude.
"What compensation do you want?" Zhu Song sneered, first walked around the lobby on the first floor, and then said: "Okay, why don't you sell Xiahai City to this king, don't worry, I will definitely give you a suitable one." Money will not let you suffer!"
For a favor, if Zhu Song's previous temper was put aside, he could directly ask for Haicheng, and he wouldn't even take out a copper coin.
But what if it’s just a sale? I don’t want your stuff for nothing, I paid for it, and you have all the money in your hand, so you can’t say that I, Zhu Song, took advantage of my status as a prince to steal it?
"Miss, you must not!" As soon as Zhu Song finished speaking, the plump woman became anxious, "This is the ancestral property left by the master in Haicheng, you must not sell the ancestral property because of me!"
Chapter 477 Rearranging the Venue
"Sister Wenruo, you were by Miqing's side when Miqing was in her teens." Miqing's face was full of memories, "Now that you are suffering like this, Miqing will naturally take it for you. Your lord... "
When talking about this, Miqing turned to look at Zhu Song, Yingying knelt down and said, "My lord, I would like to dedicate Xiahai City to you, but I beg you to let sister Wen Ruo go, and let sister Wen Ruo live."
Zhu Song stared at Misty, and suddenly said: "This king said, if you pay for Haicheng, you will definitely not break your promise. You can make an offer, but this king is not a fool, you can make an offer that suits you." price."
Mi Qing bit her lower lip lightly, her eyebrows furrowed slightly, and it took a while before she exhaled: "10 taels of supercilious eyes!"
"Why don't you grab it?" Han Qingshan's eyes widened as the bewitching flower sound fell, and he called out in a passionate voice.
For 10 taels of silver, not to mention one Haicheng, even two or three restaurants of the same size can be taken down. For this price, in Han Qingshan's view, she just doesn't want to give up Haicheng.
Let alone Han Qingshan, even Xu Miaojin, who was standing beside Zhu Song, had a look of surprise on his face.
"Yes!" Zhu Song thought for a while and nodded in agreement. Unlike Han Qingshan and Xu Miaojin, he knew that the real value of Xiahai City was far more than the 10 taels of silver.
Just like what Xu Miaojin said, if we only talk about scale and land, 10 taels is naturally a lot of land, but Xiahai City is not only valuable for these two things, but also has a lot of intangible assets, for example: those high-ranking officials in Ming Dynasty Nobles, aristocratic merchants, literati...these people all like to drill into the sea city.
These people come from all levels of Daming, and their potential influence on Daming is still great.
Even if Xiahai City changes hands in the future, as long as the inherent traditions of poetry, music and art in Xiahai City are not changed, then these people will not leave Xiahai City. As long as they operate a little, these people may be used by the court.
Compared with these people, Zhu Song still doesn't care about a mere 10 taels of silver.
"My lord, my lord!" Seeing Zhu Song nodding, Han Qingshan was dumbfounded, what's going on?
Xu Miaojin also looked at Zhu Song. Seeing that Zhu Song was also looking at her at this moment, she immediately made a mistake. She thought that Zhu Song agreed to Miqing's price of 10 taels of silver just because of her face.
Thinking of it this way, Xu Miaojin only felt very moved in her heart, and her eyes looking at Zhu Song were also full of affection.
Zhu Song was dumbfounded, thinking what's going on?Why did it suddenly become like this?
"So, Mi Qing thanked the lord!" Mi Qing saluted Zhu Songying, with a somewhat resentful expression on her face, "Today, the lord and sister came together, but such a thing happened, Mi Qing felt very sad I'm sorry, let Miqing spend the last time in Xiahai City, and treat you two well!"
While saying this, Mi Qing stretched out her hand and made a gesture of invitation to the upstairs.
"Wait first..." Zhu Song didn't follow the fascination to go inside, but said: "This woman's matter is only the first matter, there is another matter. Just now when the king met an evil slave at the door, this time Evil slave..."
Zhu Song explained what happened just now and the fascination in detail, and finally said: "This king is not an unreasonable person. Originally, this king didn't intend to drive away all the servants and waiters in Xiahai City, but This guy at the door, and everyone who has a close relationship with this guy, get rid of them all!"
"Okay!" Misty nodded. Actually, she has long been disgusted with this Li Er. If it wasn't for his brother's ability, Mi Qing would have driven Li Er away long ago.
