Quick Wear: Female Supporting Role

Chapter 105 Illegal Activities

The drizzle makes the small town surrounded by a light mist. The dense mist is everywhere, and the pavilions and towers are full of elegance and grace.

??????In the attic, there was a pretty woman with a wandering look on her face. Her thoughts had drifted away to who knows where. She pressed her temple with one hand to relieve her fatigue.

At this time, the door outside the house was pushed open, and a handsome young man walked in and placed the brewed tea in front of the woman, "Boss, this is the tea you asked for."

"Um"

Noticing that the boss was in a bad mood, he took the initiative to step forward and pat the boss's shoulders, but Mei Zi raised her hand to refuse. He said with a smile: "The boss's wife is worried about Princess Qi An, and it's such a long journey, it's really painful!"

"She" thought about how Ling Ruoli had gone up the mountain until dark that day. Mei Zi felt helpless, but the long journey didn't matter to her.

A few days ago, Ling Ruoli wrote to me, complaining about the miserable life she had along the way. When she learned that the road was rough, she gave away the boxes of clothes and utensils she had brought.

The sound of rain gradually became louder, and a gust of wind blew open the window and rushed into the house, bringing a chill.

"The weather will turn cooler in a few days." Mei Zi thought about the man who was far away in the frontier and didn't know what was going on.

During this period of time, Mei Zi secretly used money and became familiar with some officials. However, these corrupt officials only took and did not spit out, just like Pi Xiu.

Nothing was accomplished. It turned out that the officialdom was full of corruption and it was not something a businessman like her could control.

"How are the people we sent yesterday?"

"Those adults just took the money. As for your request, they still..."

Although it was easier to do things, she wanted to know more. Mei Zi wanted to know how His Majesty planned to deal with Ling Ruoli, and she couldn't help but worry.

Now she only has Ling Ruoli as a relative. Even if Ling Ruoli does something ridiculous, Mei Zi thinks it is harmless and nothing serious.

"Madam, I have a visit from Censor Xu Jian!"

Mei Zi just frowned. This Cheng Yaojin who showed up out of nowhere is now relying on her.

"Yes, yes, let him go now!"

But everyone came, wearing dark green robes, simple waist belts, and carrying some exquisite snacks.

"Boss, bring us the good wine and good food."

The others didn't dare to move and kept looking at Mei Zi for signals.

"Guests are welcome!" After Mei Zi agreed, they left in a hurry.

Mei Zi was a little foolish at first and made friends with almost all kinds of people, but she forgot that she would be targeted by others. Once, robbers held her hostage and demanded a ransom.

Fortunately, Xu Jian saved him, and he was grateful. Mei Zi hosted a banquet for this, but after a few visits, he became less polite and the two became friends.

"I have good news today!" Xu Jian put down the gift and said with a smile, "It's about your good sister, you have to listen!"

"Say it!"

The words came to his lips, but he took them back. Xu Jian was very puzzled, "Why does she keep you thinking about her?"

Xu Jian continued, "Your Majesty once issued an oral order to kill Ling Ruoli. The two maids assigned to Princess Qi An are assassins trained in the palace."

Mei Zi was anxious. She really couldn't sit still. It was so dangerous. Ling Ruoli had smiled and told her to go and play by herself.

"Your Majesty really hates her so much"

"I think so!"

Seeing the man nod affirmatively, Mei Zi got angry, "Where did you get this information? Can you come up with an excuse to put me off?"

"How is that possible!" He swore to the heavens, "If Xu said anything false, it must be because of the money you gave me, and the people in the palace spread it."

Then he took out some new and interesting things in various ways. The colorful things dazzled the eyes, but they were also exquisite in their disorder.

"Look, I bought this specially"

"This is East Street Cyclamen," Mei Zi said coldly, "Thank you very much for telling me these things. How much do you need this time?"

Seeing Xu Jian stunned, Mei Zi casually handed over a ten thousand yuan note. She was generous and said, "Finally there is some hope, which is a good thing."

Now we have no choice but to collect rice and grain so that no one can find any evidence against Ling Ruoli.

"I have something else to do, by the way, I'll treat you today!" Mei Zi pointed at the dishes and smiled softly, "Please enjoy!" She didn't even notice that Xu Jian's face turned green and black.

"Hey, that's your attitude!" Xu Jian said, "You don't even consider what I said. My father is the Left Prime Minister Xu Huixi. If you follow me in the future, you won't have to show up in public. Of course, I will also introduce you to him. What do you think? Consider it!"

Mei Zi's eyes revealed contempt, she would not give in. She could use another method, and she would never wrong herself to the point of relying on others for the sake of her good sister.

With Ling Ruoli's personality, she would not agree with me. Ling Ruoli smiled and said goodbye to me because she was afraid that I would worry. It was Ah Fei who never left her that made her feel helpless before, and she is now like this.

There was a move that Mei Zi had not made. That move concerned her own morality. After much hesitation, Mei Zi walked into An Xiang Lai with a light smile and explained a few words to the shopkeeper.

After that, An Xianglai's business was booming. It was a bit difficult for him to make a fortune every day, and he could make hundreds of gold in just a quarter of an hour.

She also knew Ling Ruoli's situation as she wished. Nowadays, most of the powerful people in the court have come to Anxiang. They came quickly and generously!

People in the court also act according to the situation. If there is real benefit, who would be willing to miss the opportunity?

Just turn around and go to the warehouse, you will see countless gold.

Mei Zi looked around and took out an account book. "After counting these, take the lists and send them to the homes of the adults according to the amounts on them!"

"Yes"

Those big men who came to Anxiang were just using Anxiang to legitimize the money they had embezzled.

After a long period of cooperation, these officials became arrogant. However, the world is full of people who are all for profit, and there are definitely many people who form cliques for personal gain, abuse their power for personal gain, and commit crimes.

"Boss, the Minister of Justice, Mr. Zhao Hanshan, is here."

Mei Zi only asked someone to entertain her, so she would not go. Once this person changes his mind, it is like a flood or a beast. This Lord Zhao has come to Anxiang no less than five times in a month.

There was a knock at the door, and after getting permission, the waiter pushed the door open and said, "Master Zhao wants to see the boss!"

"Just find someone to deal with it. I won't show up!" She hardly saw these officials in the past half month. Naturally, she was turned away when she visited them at first, and now the situation is reversed.

Every adult who comes to Anxiang spends a huge amount of money, but they all leave in high spirits.

There are all kinds of people these days, and Mei Zi is flipping through the transaction books, and there are quite a lot of them.

"Boss, your letter"

It was someone from the palace. Mei Zi opened the letter and saw that the couple had been winning battles one after another, but a sudden flood destroyed the entire city, and the enemy was approaching, making the situation worrying.

I have been receiving good news these days and thought that they would be returning to the court soon. If His Majesty embarrasses Ling Ruoli again at that time, these corrupt officials will definitely plead for mercy with the bargaining chips in their hands.

This idea was not thought up by Mei Zi, but was suggested to her by someone else.

And the person behind the scenes is the biggest culprit.
