Chapter 121 Qing Wan Offers Advice
Under the full care of the servants in Prince Huai's mansion, Nanny Zhou woke up on the third day of her coma. She stared blankly at the ceiling, unable to figure out what was going on for a moment.
She lost consciousness after being knocked unconscious by Song Yunshuang, and then vaguely felt her body rubbing against the ground, so she temporarily regained some consciousness. Then she fell into the pit and fell on the thick weeds, thus escaping death.
"Old man, you are awake. Qiuyue, go tell Sister Chunya to ask her to invite the princess over."
"Yes."
Hearing the voice of the maid next to her, Nanny Zhou wanted to turn around but couldn't. Princess? Did she go back to Prince Yu's Mansion?
Song Qingwan rushed over when she heard the news. Seeing that Nanny Zhou looked confused, she kindly explained.
"This is Prince Huai's Mansion. You were rescued by our guards."
When Nanny Zhou heard Song Qingwan's words, her eyes became complicated. Prince Huai's Mansion is the rival of Prince Yu's Mansion.
However, Song Qingwan ignored Nanny Zhou's little thoughts. She only came to save people at Zhao Huaijin's request.
After some examination, Song Qingwan confirmed that Nanny Zhou was out of danger for the time being, but the excessive blood loss and the wound on her head might cause sequelae in the future.
Song Qingwa told Nanny Zhou everything. Although she couldn't speak yet, she had no problem with her hearing.
Nanny Zhou didn't seem surprised by the result. There was no surprise expression on her face. She just nodded slowly.
Song Qingwan gave a few more instructions, asking the servants to continue taking good care of the patient, and then she went to the study.
Zhao Huaijin was handling official business. When he saw Song Qingwan come in, he quickly put down what he was holding.
Ever since Yan Yu was named the Crown Prince, the emperor began to cultivate Zhao Huaijin intentionally or unintentionally. In the past, Zhao Huaijin could only handle simpler things, such as dealing with public security in the capital.
But now Zhao Huaijin can slowly get involved in some government affairs in the court. Although the emperor still values Zhao Yujun, the proportion is obviously smaller.
Today, the emperor took the initiative to show Zhao Huaijin the memorials from officials in Fangling Yazhou area and asked him to help deal with them. He was having a headache reading them at the moment.
"Awan, you're here. I just heard that the woman woke up."
"Well, you are still reading the memorials. Can you come up with a solution?"
"No, the geographical location of this area is too special. Not only is it close to the sea, but it is also full of smog. The problem is indeed difficult to solve."
Song Qingwan understood. She had traveled through time several years ago and had heard of the smoky and polluted place of Fangling. The problems there were extremely troublesome.
The local environment is harsh and the air is humid, so there are a lot of mosquitoes and parasites. In addition, the local virgin forest is large and there are many animals such as snakes, insects, and rats, which the local people like to catch and eat.
This has led to a large number of epidemics, which can cause deaths and are contagious.
This virus is different from the plague virus in Gusu City before. There is more than one kind prevalent here.
However, because there are few residents and people are relatively scattered, the scope of transmission is small.
It is conceivable that the economy in such an environment is relatively backward, so local officials would submit memorials every year requesting funding and food distribution from the court.
Last year, due to the severe disaster in the south of the Yangtze River, grain production decreased significantly, so there was insufficient grain in the granaries.
The emperor naturally had a headache when he saw the memorials from local officials, so he ordered the two princes to think of countermeasures separately to see how to achieve the best of both worlds.
Song Qingwan glanced over the memorials on the table, then closed them and put them back.
"Is there no solution at all?"
"The suggestions made by the civil and military officials in the court were nothing more than temporarily rejecting the request or allocating less funds. But when we think of the local people living in dire straits, how can we bear it?"
Song Qingwan nodded. She understood Zhao Huaijin. If there was any prince in the Zhao family who would truly consider the people, it would be him.
"Don't worry, I'll help you find a solution."
"No, Awan, I won't let you take risks again, otherwise I will be a complete failure as a husband."
“Some things don’t necessarily have to be done by ourselves.”
"What do you mean?"
"Everyone in the world is here for profit. If there is profit, someone will do it."
"What does Awan mean?"
"I haven't thought about this yet. Jin, do you know who is the biggest businessman in this dynasty?"
Zhao Huaijin was stunned for a while, then his brows relaxed, he picked up Song Qingwan and kissed her hard.
"I, Zhao Huaijin, am lucky to have such a wife."
The couple had a tacit understanding, and Zhao Huaijin understood as soon as Song Qingwan mentioned it.
Song Qingwan kissed Zhao Huaijin back. Her man really understood everything.
Zhao Huaijin did not dare to delay and immediately left the palace to look for someone.
The number one businessman in the world is none other than Xiao Hechuan from the Xiao family. It would be most appropriate to entrust this matter to the Xiao family.
Song Qingwan was also busy. She sent people to secretly inquire around Prince Yu's Mansion to find out whether Prince Yu's wet nurse was still in the mansion.
Soon Chunya came back to report that His Royal Highness Prince Yu's wet nurse had disappeared a few days ago and Prince Yu's Mansion was looking for her everywhere.
"Is the news accurate?"
"It's absolutely true. I asked Xiao Tao to find out. She has a little sister who works in Prince Yu's mansion. She said that the wet nurse seemed to have disappeared out of thin air."
"So, it can be ruled out that this Madam's accident was an accident."
"Of course. How could an old man of this age sneak out of the house in the middle of the night?"
Song Qingwan nodded, and the next day she went to see Nanny Zhou in person and asked about her identity.
"Are you Madam Zhou, the wet nurse of His Royal Highness Prince Yu?"
Nanny Zhou blinked her eyes, indicating that Song Qingwan guessed right. She did not feel any hostility here in the past few days.
The people in Prince Huai's Mansion took good care of her, and she also learned from her maid that it was indeed the people in Prince Huai's Mansion who saved her.
Therefore, the little hostility she had left towards the Prince Huai's Mansion disappeared, and she admitted it generously, then smiled gratefully at Song Qingwan.
"How did you become like this? Were you harmed by someone?"
Nanny Zhou nodded, and Song Qingwan continued to ask.
"Who harmed you? A servant in the palace?"
Nanny Zhou shook her head, then opened her mouth and uttered a weak sound.
Seeing this, Chunya hurried forward and listened and repeated.
"Aunt Jin...Jin?"
Nanny Zhou nodded heavily, and Song Qingwan couldn't help but feel her impression of Prince Yu worsened.
His wife is pregnant and hasn't given birth yet. Not only did he marry a concubine, but he also took a concubine?
"Chun Ya, go find out who this Concubine Jin is."
"Yes."
At this moment, Aunt Jin Song Yunshuang was being interrogated by Prince Yu. She was so frightened that she was shaking all over and didn't dare to raise her head.
"That vase is unique in the world. There is absolutely no way it could be mistaken. Where did you put it?"
