    In the evening, Mu Xiangqing invited Hua Xi over.

    "The Marquis went to find Du Shaoyin in Shangjing Mansion. The businessman suffered no serious injuries except for some skin injuries. Du Shaoyin exempted Liu Qigui from punishment, gave him twenty boards and a fine of one hundred taels.  We¡¯ve returned to Willow Lane, you don¡¯t have to worry anymore.¡±

    Huaxi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and Mu Xiangqing added: "That businessman is still somewhat famous in Luzhou. His sister is married to Wang Lang, a promotion official in Luzhou Prefecture. Wang Lang is the nephew of the deputy general manager of the palace, Eunuch Wang."

    Hua Xi immediately felt something was wrong, but she was at a loss as to what to do.

    "Why is it involved with people in the palace?"

    Mu Xiangqing comforted him: "I couldn't tell clearly for a while. The Marquis didn't explain it in detail, so he asked me to tell you. This matter will have to be investigated for some time, so don't worry. But I do know this prince."  , he was previously the chief eunuch in the Concubine Xian¡¯s Palace"

    Huaxi was stunned. She didn¡¯t expect that her small shop would involve such people. She was really flattered.

    ¡°It¡¯s just about a month since the store will be changed, so I¡¯ll take advantage of this period to close the store and rest for a while.¡±

    The shop is closed and you don¡¯t know when it will be reopened?  It's just that this matter involves a lot of things.  At this time, we can only close the shop first and wait until the news is found out.

    Hua Xi nodded in agreement, "Let Auntie and the Marquis worry about it."

    The next day, Huaxi asked Muxi to go over and tell Mother Liu what Mu Xiangqing meant, and he also closed the shop for a month's rest.

    Half a month later, no other news was heard, and no one was looking for trouble anymore. Things in the shop seemed to have calmed down.  But Huaxi felt that things had just begun, and felt uneasy.

    At the end of the month, Ji Xie came to visit the Mu family, and Huaxi called Cuiming to the middle courtyard to inquire about the news.

    Cuiming came back and said that Ji Xie had been chatting with the Marquis in the study for an hour. The Marquis came back from the front yard and entered his wife's room.  Later, Mu Xiangqing sent someone to invite Huaxi to come over. It probably meant that it was about the business in the shop. Something happened to the Luzhou businessman's family. Taking advantage of his connections in Beijing, he went around cheating and cheating several small shops.  The government has found out that the man was imprisoned, and the money confiscated last time has been returned, so Huaxi no longer has to worry.

    This result can be regarded as a concession by the other party. Has the merchant become an outcast?  What does Ji Xie have to do with this matter?  A series of questions were swirling in Huaxi's head, but she couldn't figure them out.  Mu Xiangqing didn't take the initiative to mention it, so he couldn't ask again.

    In September, the shops on Deyu Street were vacated.  Manager Fu had packed everything up and asked Hua Xi to go over and take a look.  A two-story building with a small courtyard behind it.  There was a shop on the first floor and four rooms on the second floor. One was a scent room and three were private rooms. Huaxi drew the drawings and asked Liu Qigui to ask his master to make special furniture for the aromatherapy massage room.  There are two entrances to the backyard. The front is where the incense making room and the guys live, and the back is where Dingxiang and his family live.

    There is nothing wrong with the store, what is missing is the waiters and women who specialize in massage.  Although Mu Xiangqing said that he would be the hands-off shopkeeper, Huaxi thought for a while and realized that he didn't have a suitable person for the moment, so he might as well ask Mu Xiangqing to choose someone. At least someone from the Cheng family would be more reliable.

    "It used to be that the shop was small, so Ding Xiang and Liu's mother were able to handle the accounts themselves. Now that the shop is bigger, Liu Qigui is left to do the chores and the spices. Liu Qigui is afraid that he won't be able to take care of the accounting work alone, and Ding Xiang has to do it again.  We have hired two apprentice helpers, and the aroma massage room is still short of two people I am here to ask my aunt for help in selecting a few suitable people."

    Mu Xiangqing understands that Huaxi wants to keep public and private business separate. In addition, she only has Mama Liu and her family who really look down on such a big shop. In addition, after what happened, people from her own house are more reliable.

    Mu Xiangqing did not shirk. He thought for a moment and said to Hua Xi: "I have to ask the Marquis about the accounting department. The shop is for female customers. I will choose four apprentices and masseurs for you from the maids."

    Mu Xiangqing asked Cheng Chong in the evening.  Cheng Chong did not refuse, and directly asked Manager Fu to choose an accountant named Wu from the large accounting room in the outer courtyard.

    With everyone ready, Huaxi led Liu Qigui to Yao Ji, Feng Ji, Yipin Xiang, and some small incense shops to see the incense wood. By the way, he introduced the incense wood to the shopkeepers of several of them, so that he could start purchasing goods independently in the future.

    Everything in Xiangpu is complicated, so Huaxi often leaves the house.

    That day, when she came out of the incense shop and was about to return to Cheng Mansion, Hua Xi met Chen Hongxi. She wanted to avoid it, but she didn't expect Chen Hongxi to come up and say hello, "But Miss Mu? I'm Chen Hongxi. We had a chance encounter last time at Luodong Prince's Mansion.  I wonder if the girl still remembers?"

    Hua Xi frowned secretly, he was wearing a hat, did he still recognize it?  When they last met, it seemed that Qiongzhi didn't introduce who she was to him?  Out of courtesy, Huaxi still said hello to Chen Hongxi, "It turns out it's Mr. Chen Er.? Please let Mr. Chen go!  "

    Chen Hongxi leaned close to Hua Xi's ear and whispered: "We have a long time to come. After tonight, I will rescue you from the hands of the bad guys. Tomorrow I will go to Mu Mansion to propose marriage! You don't like me, do you? Then I will ask you for it.  Watching in vain as I take you into my house as my concubine makes you unable to tell the story of your suffering!"

    Huaxi was shocked, this person has such a vicious mind!  She underestimated Chen Hongxi. He was more scheming than those ordinary playboys!

    Huaxi is scared. Is she really going to be reduced to being Chen Hongxi¡¯s concubine today?

    Suddenly, a whistle sounded.

    Chen Hongxi's hand on Huaxi loosened up, his eyes flashed with astonishment, and his whole body slipped softly from Huaxi's body and fell to the ground.

    Hua Xi was surprised, and suddenly her vision went dark and she lost consciousness.

    Five people jumped down from the wall. One of the leaders pointed at Chen Hongxi and the two strong men who were unconscious on the ground and ordered: "You three, take them back to Luodong Palace, and the maid will stay here. You go  Send a message to the nursing home of Cheng Mansion." The three of his men carried Chen Hongxi and his two men over the wall like they were trying to carry little chickens.

    The leader picked up Hua Xi from the ground, put it in a sack and put it on his shoulders. He walked in with the other person, jumped up and disappeared into the alley.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
