After Picking Up Five Brothers, No One Dares to Offend the Capital City

Chapter 516

The Crown Prince oversees the government, as everyone knows.

The Crown Prince's accession to the throne is set in stone.

When the Crown Prince's office completely takes over the politics of the Dayu Dynasty, Zhu Changyan's position will no longer be shaken by anyone. This is the greatest guarantee that the ancestors set up under the primogeniture system to ensure the Crown Prince's interests.

It is also why the other princes are anxious to make a move on the day the Crown Prince is established.

No one in the entire Dayu land wants to offend the Crown Prince, not even Liu Ergou.

He initially still wanted to struggle, shouting that Jiang Sheng dared to impersonate the Crown Prince's sister, but when he saw the dazzling Crown Prince's waist plaque, he completely wilted.

The divorce went smoothly. Da Mi, the woman surnamed Xu, moved into the big courtyard with her daughter. Jiuzhen Store also began to vigorously select locations and purchase storefronts.

With the experience of Fengjing ahead, there was almost no difficulty in copying it.

It's just that Jiang Sheng had to deal with the curious Jiang San and Jiang Si all the time, "Miss, your waist plaque looks so good. Did His Highness the Crown Prince give it to you? Take it out and show us, okay? Or let us touch it."

"Go away!" She put her hands on her hips. "That's the Crown Prince's token. There is only one in the world, held high like the Crown Prince is present in person."

"Only one?" Jiang Si was a little disappointed. "His Highness the Crown Prince gave you his token. What does he use to prove his own identity?"

This time Jiang Sheng didn't need to answer.

Beside her, Jiang San looked at his inseparable brother with the eyes of looking at a fool.

Does the Crown Prince still need to prove himself?

In the blink of an eye, half a month passed, and the preparatory work for Jiuzhen Store was almost done.

This time, Jiang Sheng was generous. Whether it was the courtyard for the workers to live in or the four storefronts Jiuzhen Store occupied, she directly bought them with documents.

The reason was that the price was right and much cheaper than Fengjing.

Like Miao Zhaoying at the beginning, Da Mi was hardworking and loyal.

When she heard that the workshop was willing to recruit unfortunate women who were divorced, she wept with joy, while contacting several similarly suffering young ladies.

Those who had the idea of getting a divorce were given a hand, and those without that idea were not forced.

Sign the contract, then get trained, and they would be able to get started with production very quickly.

On the day Jiuzhen Store opened, the young man surnamed Xu also came to help. Da Ya shyly glanced at him before hurrying into the room.

Sparks fly so easily between young men and women of marriageable age?

Jiang Sheng looked doubtful, lost in thought.

Before she could figure it out, Miao Zhaoying came over hesitantly, as if she had something to say but couldn't get it out for several times.

"Auntie, are you getting married too?" Jiang Sheng couldn't help but associate it with Da Ya.

Miao Zhaoying came back to her senses and spat on the ground several times, "What is the young miss saying? I'm about to become a grandmother. Where would I have those unlucky thoughts?"

"Then you..." Jiang Sheng scratched her head.

"Good young miss, I wanted to ask if you have chosen a shop manager for Jiuzhen Store in Luoyang Prefecture?" Miao Zhaoying asked shyly. "Do you think I'm qualified?"

So that's what it was about.

Jiang Sheng immediately laughed. "Auntie Miao, Auntie Miao, I didn't hire a shop manager for Jiuzhen Store at all. If you are willing to stay, that would be great. If you are unwilling, I still have to send someone from Fengjing."

Miao Zhaoying was overjoyed. "I thought you didn't trust me because I'm a woman."

"Where did you get that idea, Auntie?" Jiang Sheng said seriously. "I'm also a woman, so is Auntie Zhang. Men can do things in this world, and women can do them too. I've seen your abilities with my own eyes. I'll feel at ease leaving it to you."

It was common for women to collect money and keep accounts in small shops, but large restaurants and storefronts were almost all managed by men, as if only men were qualified to maneuver behind the scenes and control the overall situation.

But as long as they were given a chance, women also had the ability to hold up half the sky.

In the final analysis, what they lacked was just an opportunity.

Jiang Sheng didn't stay in Luoyang Prefecture for too long. After Jiuzhen Store officially opened, she went back to the capital with Jiang San and Jiang Si.

Da Ya saw her off reluctantly before she left.

Jiang Sheng said wickedly, "Sister Da Ya, you have to be careful when marrying. If that Xu surname little bastard bullies you, just tell me and the aunties of our Jiuzhen Store can drown him with a mouthful of spit each."

The young man in the distance shuddered.

Da Ya nodded with tears in her eyes. "I'll remember. You take care too, young miss."

The wheels of the carriage rumbled as it galloped on the official road from Luoyang Prefecture to Fengjing. There were five people on the way there and three on the way back.

Before Jiang Sheng had time to feel melancholy, while looking at the scenery through the little window, she heard passersby discussing, "Is the army really coming back? Is it really returning triumphantly?"

"How could it be fake? A hundred thousand northerners were annihilated. Several generals must have made great achievements."

"Then when will they arrive?"

"Probably in the next two days."

The carriage moved away and the discussion disappeared.

Jiang Sheng stuck out her head and froze there for a good while before cheering, "Third Brother is back. Dad is back. I'm going home. Go home quickly."

"Then, miss, are we going back to the small courtyard first or to the Jiang's house?" Jiang Si asked foolishly.

Jiang Sheng was stunned again. Her big eyes rolled back and forth as a storm raged in her mind.

On one side was her dad, on the other was her brother.

On the side, Jiang San sighed secretly and glanced at his witless brother, then indulged himself in his own wisdom.

"Look at the route... Go to whichever we pass first." After struggling for a long time, Jiang Sheng finally gave an answer.

Luoyang Prefecture is located northeast of Fengjing. According to the map, taking the east gate would be appropriate. However, the actual winding official road was built along the north gate path.

Erjin Small Courtyard is located slightly northwest, while the Jiang House faces southeast.

It seems that in the little girl's heart, the brother who grew up suffering with her still comes a little bit before dad.

Just a tiny little bit, as long as a fingernail.

The carriage sped up, galloping on the official road, and finally arrived at Erjin Small Courtyard.

Before Jiang Sheng could cheer happily, she was told that Fang Heng had not arrived.

She was frustrated and rushed to the Jiang family, but did not see the mighty and tall Jiang Jizu either.

Only the weak and old grandmother was sitting in the rocking chair smiling at her. "Silly girl, last time your dad hurried back ahead of the army because he was anxious to see you."

"Don't worry. Don't worry. He'll be back soon."

"Also, don't be sad..."

"Sad? I'm not sad," Jiang Sheng misunderstood and explained, "Grandma, don't worry. I won't be sad if Dad couldn't come back early. I'll just feel a little disappointed. I'll wait for Dad to come back."

"Good girl," Old Lady Jiang chuckled softly, with tears appearing in her eyes. "Then let's wait for your dad to come back together."

Grandmother and granddaughter snuggled together and chatted about some family affairs.

The brothers were all busy, so Jiang Sheng didn't nag about going home either.

On the contrary, it was the army that had not yet returned, which often made her lose herself in thought.

Tan Yuexin knew it clearly in her heart and sent He Rui out to investigate. Finally she came happily to report the news she got first-hand, "Old Madam, young miss, the general is back. The army is back."

The warriors from the battlefield have all returned.
