    Chapter 229

    When he first came to Xiliang, he was still an exiled prisoner at the lowest level. He didn't even have the minimum personal freedom, and his future was slim.

    But now, with a reputation, a high-ranking official, and a lot of money, have to say that the fate of life is unpredictable.

    Mu Wanqing sat in the carriage from which she came, drinking the best tea leaves and eating exquisite snacks, she couldn't help feeling emotional.

    Mu Ziang, who was sitting opposite, looked up at her, "sister, what are you thinking?"

    Mu Wanqing glanced at the blueprint on the table, "I'm thinking about what Fufeng City has become. I'm looking forward to it."

    She had drawn drawings based on the characteristics of Fufeng City before, and how to build it was all based on her preferences.

    Mu Ziang was going to take over Fufeng City. He patted his chest and assured, "don't worry, I will build Fufeng City as our home, and I will keep this place firmly."

    To put it bluntly, Xiliang is the territory of the Du family. The Du family has been in business for hundreds of years and is unbreakable.

    Fufeng City is the foundation of the Mu family, so it must be firmly in the hands of the Mu family.

    With Fufeng City, the Mu family can advance and retreat and defend.

    He knew the importance of Fufeng City, so he did not insist on following his sister.

    Mu Wanqing had high hopes for him, "Mr. Qian is very capable. You should lay a solid foundation. I will leave you most of the money. Once a few workshops are built, they will naturally prosper."

    She plans to build a wool workshop, a cotton-padded clothes workshop, and an alcohol workshop branch in Fufeng City, all of which Mu Ziang understands.

    There is also a saltwater lake in Fufeng City, which alone can support a prosperity.

    "I've already said hello to Guo Er, let him come over to help you, and you can ask him more about business."

    She has arranged all aspects, as long as mu Ziang doesn't lose the chain.

    But mu Ziang couldn't worry about his sister, "take Guo Er to the capital. You don't need to leave me too much money. Bring more money when you go out."

    Mu Wanqing waved her hand, "No need, I'm a small earner myself, isn't it easy to get money?"

    It makes sense, and mu Zi'ang can't refute it.

    "By the way, big brother, why didn't you bring sister-in-law with you when you went to the capital this time? I don't know how long it will take to go."

    They didn't know Mu Wanqing's arrangement for her eldest brother, mainly because they didn't want to put too much pressure on Mu Zicheng.

    Mu Zicheng picked up the teapot and filled the empty cups of the two with water, with a happy face, "she is happy, you will have a little nephew and a little niece in eight months."

    It was found out before departure, and it was not made public within three months.

    The good news came too suddenly, and Mu Wanqing's brothers and sisters were very surprised, and immediately smiled.

    "Congratulations, eldest brother." Mu Wanqing raised the corners of her mouth, her parents must be very happy.

    Mu Zicheng is very happy that the Mu family finally has a third generation, "big brother, you finally got your wish, congratulations, I can't wait."

    Muzi raised her eyebrows and smiled, "you should think more about your life's events. Parents are in a hurry."

    "What's the rush? Let's just let it be." Mu Zicheng is not in a hurry at all, "Men focus on career."

    Mu Zicheng rolled his eyes, this stinky boy.

    "Sister, come, eat more, you have worked hard all the way."

    The younger brother can scold, the younger sister can only spoil.

    Although she was on the road, Mu Wanqing was not idle either. Every time she went, she collected the newspapers of the residence and gathered everyone to conduct research, from which she spied a lot of information on the court.

    They also carried out emergency raids for the students who came to Beijing to take the exam. The head of the Fang family was in charge of the Four Books and Five Classics, and Mu Wanqing was in charge of policy theory and current affairs.

    She has a sensitivity to current affairs that ordinary people don't have, and she can say anything and everything.

    For example, the three famous policy theories are the Qin theory, the feudal theory, and the Six Kingdoms theory. Note (1)

    For example, salt and iron, civil affairs, military affairs, education, judiciary, finance, and river governance have deep insights and lofty arguments.

    She was originally standing on the shoulders of her predecessors. She has accumulated thousands of years of experience, and has experience in managing city affairs, and her insights are far higher than those of her predecessors.

    Therefore, the students were fascinated, their eyes widened, they benefited a lot, and they were very excited.

    The Fang family head, who returned to the capital together, was also greatly shocked, and some problems were solved.

    He is worthy of being the head of Qingping County, a genius of the sky, and an amazing talent.

    Not only that, but she also resumed her old business, selling and buying local specialties, buying and selling, with precise vision, and money flowing in continuously.

    By the time she arrived in the capital, she had already earned a million taels of silver, and there was nothing she could do. Thousands of Qingping troops were waiting for her to raise her.

    The old people know that she can make money, but the new people are shocked from the beginning to numbness later.

    Well, money is numb.

    The towering gates of the capital came into view, and everyone cheered.

    Mu Wanqing lifted the curtain and glanced at it, her eyebrows raised slightly, she was back again.

    She is looking at the scenery, but it is also a beautiful scenery in the eyes of others.

    When the group hurried past the motorcade, a young man in brocade saw her inadvertently and couldn't help staring straight at her.

    It is beautiful, and it has a rare heroic spirit, which can be salty, sweet or sassy.

    Which daughter is this?

    Mu Wanqing sensed it keenly, raised her eyes to look over, and made a right eye.

    Facing the man's astonishing gaze, she didn't blush shyly, but lowered her jaw in a graceful manner, and then she casually looked away.

    Honor and disgrace are not shocked, look down on the situation.

    The young man became more and more interested, and called a servant to instruct him, "Go and find out, which daughter is this? I want to know all her details."

    He wanted to marry a stunning woman, and he finally found it.

    How could Mu Wanqing know that he thought so much, before entering the city gate, someone ran out to greet him.

    "I have seen the county owner, the county owner is auspicious."

    Mu Wanqing recognized Du Shaoxuan's bodyguard at a glance, "Little Luzi, get up."

    Xiao Luzi said beamingly, "The master is guarding here every day these days. Unfortunately, the emperor called me into the palace today, so I have to wait at the gate of the city. You have finally come to the capital."

    Mu Wanqing looked at the road conditions around her, "Let's lead the way first, don't block at the intersection."

    "Yes."

    Xiao Luzi took the group to the main mansion of Qingping County. The main mansion of Qingping County was in the inner city, but it was a little far from the palace, occupying half a street.

    The front door opened wide, and several servants knelt down to greet him.

    Mu Wanqing got off the carriage and looked up at the plaque. The five characters of Qingping County's main residence were glittering with gold.

    "This is the first emperor's own handwriting." Little Lu Zi introduced softly on the side.

    Mu Wanqing watched it for a few seconds before she walked in.

    The county main mansion is a mansion with five entrances, and the first entrance is the front yard, which is used to receive guests. Entering the second door is the inner courtyard.

    There are four courtyards, the largest is the main courtyard, which is magnificent and rich in gardens, and the plaque is hanging in the air. Waiting for the owner to name.

    Mu Wanqing walked around the courtyard, "It's called Chenxi Courtyard."

    Morning light, evening clear, quite corresponding.

    She allocated Yongchun Garden to Fang Patriarch and his son to live in. The Fang Patriarch came back this time to recover, and Mu Wanqing planned to help him, which was her help.

    Qizitang was allocated to Mu Ziang and Mu's children. As a guest house, the Chaoxia Hall was reserved for the students of Xiliang, and it was crowded.

    There was a group of people who followed her back in the front yard, and the Qing Ping Army was housed in the back house, but it was still not enough.

    She came back with more than 2,000 people, and it really couldn't fit.

    She simply booked a few inns and arranged for a group of people to stay.

    As soon as she made arrangements and took a hot bath, someone in the palace came to declare an decree and let her enter the palace to see the driver.

    The maids were nervous and hurriedly took out the luggage they brought.

    There are clothes all over the place, and don't know which one to choose.

    "County Lord, which suit do you think is suitable?"

    Mu Wanqing glanced at random and pointed at a sky blue robe, "Just this one."

    Some of them look like beard costumes, but they are not men's clothes. They are simple and neat without losing the atmosphere. They were specially designed by Mu Wanqing.

    She had someone comb a high ponytail, tied her hair with a jade crown, embellished with a few beaded flowers, and picked a snow-white jade pendant to hang around her waist.

    She looked in the mirror and nodded with satisfaction, "Okay, that's it."

    The maid was stunned for a moment, "Don't you wear makeup?"

    Mu Wanqing usually doesn't apply grease powder, but this is going to the palace to meet the emperor.

    If you don't put on big makeup, do you look unceremonious and seem disrespectful to the heavenly family.

    "There's no need." Mu Wanqing's new position for herself is that she doesn't hide her gender, but she doesn't deliberately embellish her, and she faces it openly.

    Of course, special occasions are treated differently.

    Mu Wanqing only brought two female guards into the palace. The palace was huge, and all the way was on foot.

    She looked around curiously, what was the difference between this and the Forbidden City in her memory?

    how to say? Liver and more popular.

    Also, the Forbidden City does not live in people.

    Seeing her curiously looking around, the inner servant felt a little disgusted in her heart.

    "This is the first time the county owner has entered the palace. Do you know the rules of the palace?"

    Mu Wanqing was very casual, "I don't know."

    The inner servant was very disdainful, and it was inevitable that some of his face would come out, "You can't look around, you can't chat casually with people, you can't make a lot of noise, and you have to give a big gift when you see the empress..."

    He talked non-stop, wishing to memorize all the rules of the palace.

    Mu Wanqing was very sensitive to other people's emotions, and she was not happy when she heard the servant's behavior.

    It is said that the palace is the most snobbish place, which is true.

    The maid suddenly exclaimed, "I have seen Concubine Xi."

    I saw a group of palace maids walked in with a graceful and luxurious concubine, and the concubine arrogantly asked, "Who is this? How do you dress so strangely?"

    The waiter smiled flatteringly, "This is the county magistrate of Qingping, you haven't seen the empress soon."

    The emperor did not have many heirs, only one son and two daughters. This Concubine Xi gave birth to the only prince, and the mother was the most valuable concubine in the palace.

    If nothing else, her son will be the next emperor, and she will be the empress dowager above.

    Mu Wanqing had done her homework before she came. The royal family knew everything about the situation in the capital, and naturally they knew the character of Concubine Xi.

    But she didn't enter the harem, and there was no conflict of interest with the concubines, so she didn't care much.

    She cupped her hands, "I have seen Concubine Xi."

    She was still polite, but, as if she had burned the other party's nest, Concubine Xi's face turned down.

    The maid beside her shouted loudly, "Presumptuous, don't you kneel down when you see Concubine Xi?"

    Mu Wanqing looked at them in shock, no grievances and no enmity, but her mind was flooded?

    "Concubine Xi, I didn't hear your servant's words clearly. Say it again."

    She doesn't care about being a slave. Find the master if you want.

    Concubine Xi raised her eyebrows and scolded softly, "No rules, kneel down."

    Mu Wanqing laughed angrily, it seemed that this pampered and arrogant woman had been pushed out as a spearman, giving her a slap in the face.

    As soon as she entered the capital, those people couldn't wait to make moves. If she backed down, the other party would only press on step by step.

    Then see the tricks.

    She casually brushed her sleeves, "I remember that Concubine Xi is a third-rank palace concubine, and I am an official third-rank official. As a palace concubine, you should be familiar with all kinds of etiquette. Why don't you give me a return gift? I'm waiting."

    Concubine Xi was stunned.
