In ancient times, I just wanted to be a salted fish

Chapter 156 The curtain opens

Three days later, Chen Daquan and his party from Pingyang Prefecture finally arrived in the capital after a long journey and came to the inn where Chen Ruotong was staying.

There are more than 20 people in this group. They are all in high spirits and look forward to the next work with great anticipation.

After meeting Chen Ruotong, Zhou Qian led the group to the teahouse to renovate it. At the same time, more than a dozen experienced craftsmen had already been waiting there. Everyone gathered together, ready to start this huge project together.

Qiao Zien had already completed the decoration design of the teahouse in advance. He carefully conceived and cleverly laid out the plan, taking every detail into consideration.

Especially for those areas where glass is needed, eye-catching markings are specially made.

Afterwards, Qiao Zien and Chen Ruotong carefully calculated the amount of glass needed to ensure that the entire decoration plan could proceed smoothly.

As night fell, people who had been busy all day chose to rest in the backyard. The environment here was quiet and the area was quite large, with a total of 20 rooms for the servants to live in.

All daily necessities and beddings in the house were newly purchased with Zhou Qian. They are clean and comfortable, allowing people to move in with peace of mind immediately.

Chen Ruotong quietly walked into the first floor of the teahouse and gently closed the door. With a thought, she took out a large amount of glass from the space and placed it in the corner of the first floor.

She took out five pairs of thick and durable gloves and five glass cutters from the space. After making all the preparations, Chen Ruotong decided to personally teach Chen Daquan and others how to cut these glass materials.

In the early morning of April 20th, the door of the teahouse slowly opened, and an intense and orderly renovation project officially began.

Chen Ruotong stood in the middle of the teahouse, directing everyone with a focused look to get involved in this busy work.

Demolition workers were removing old decorations; carpenters were carefully polishing wooden shelves.

Chen Daquan led five servants to cut crystal clear glass according to the method taught by Chen Ruotong. The workers responsible for cleaning up the garbage quickly transported the waste materials to ensure that the construction site was always clean.

The whole scene was bustling but well organized. Everyone performed their duties and worked closely together to ensure that the renovation work went smoothly.

Zhou Qian stood quietly by and watched all this. He couldn't help but feel admiration for Chen Ruotong as she dispatched personnel and resources in an orderly manner.

Seeing this, he knew that he could completely relax, so he turned and left, going to several houses he had previously taken a fancy to and discussing the purchase matters with the owners.

The originally quiet teahouse was now bustling with renovation work, and the noisy sounds and busy figures intertwined together, attracting many curious eyes. Among the crowd, a servant from the Princess's Mansion was also attracted by the lively scene and couldn't help but stop to watch.

After some inquiries, the clever servant learned that the person who bought the teahouse was called Mr. Chen Si. This news shocked him and he immediately realized the importance of the matter.

So he turned around and rushed towards the Princess's Mansion, anxious to pass the news to his eldest daughter, Liang Zhilan.

After returning to the Princess's Mansion, the servant ran to Liang Zhilan breathlessly and bowed respectfully, saying, "My lord, I just got the news that our teahouse is being renovated!

It is said that it was bought by a wealthy businessman named Chen Si Gongzi. It is said that Chen Si Gongzi is very wealthy, and even the windows in the building are made of glass shipped from overseas!"

Liang Zhilan's face darkened instantly after hearing this, and she thought to herself, "How could this happen? Didn't he fall off the cliff and die? Could it be that someone is impersonating him? No, we must find out the truth!"

Thinking of this, she stood up suddenly and ordered the servant: "Go and call Zhu Wu! This princess has something important to ask him."

The servant saw the princess's angry face and knew the situation was serious, so he dared not say a word. He quickly agreed and hurried to find the assassin Zhu Wu.

After a while, Zhu Wu came and waited for Liang Zhilan to ask questions.

"Zhu Wu, didn't you say that Chen Guchuan had fallen off a cliff and died? Then why did he appear in the capital again and bought the "Yashiju" teahouse?" Liang Zhilan asked sternly.

Zhu Wu was also shocked. He did not expect such a result. He quickly replied, "My Lord, I did see Chen Guchuan fall off the cliff with my own eyes. Maybe he was lucky and got hung on the tree when he fell off the cliff."

Liang Zhilan raised her eyebrows and said, "This possibility cannot be ruled out. Go and find out as soon as possible."

After Zhu Wu left, Nanny Xu came to report the matter.

Aunt Xu flattered, "My lord, I have something important to report. Please listen to me!"

After the theft in the storehouse, Liang Zhilan disliked Xu Mama and had completely forgotten all the kindness Xu Mama had shown her in the past.

Yes, she is not the kind of person who knows how to be grateful. No matter how good you are to her, she is just a lowly slave.

Liang Zhilan rolled her eyes and said impatiently, "Tell me, what's the matter?"

When Aunt Xu saw Liang Zhilan's attitude, she was a little hesitant. She was afraid that if she spoke out, she would anger the princess and get nothing out of it. While she was hesitating, she heard the princess say, "Aunt Xu, if you have something to say, please say it quickly. The princess has something important to do!"

Aunt Xu was very nervous, but she could only bite the bullet. The muscles on her face twitched uncontrollably, and she said in a trembling voice: "Princess, please don't be angry. This matter is related to the county horse!"

When Liang Zhilan heard this, her expression instantly became solemn. Her originally fair face seemed to be covered with a layer of frost. She said coldly, "What on earth is it related to the county horse? Stop beating around the bush and tell me the truth!"

Nanny Xu took a deep breath, calmed herself, and then told Liang Zhilan everything about Wu Qiming's secret meeting with Zhihua.

After hearing this, Liang Zhilan felt dizzy, her eyes suddenly went dark, her body was shaky, and she almost fainted. Fortunately, Aunt Xu, who was standing by, was quick to move and rushed forward to support her.

Liang Zhilan was so angry that her chest rose and fell violently, her breathing was rapid, her eyes were bloodshot, and she cursed angrily: "What a shameless little bitch, and that unfaithful man, they are simply a pair of adulterers! This princess will never forgive them..."

Aunt Xu was so frightened by Liang Zhilan's furious look that her soul left her body. Her legs went limp and she collapsed to the ground, shaking all over.

However, after a burst of rage, Liang Zhilan gradually calmed down. She murmured to herself: "No, it's impossible, Brother Ming will never betray me, he has always loved me so much!

It must be that little bitch who used her beauty to seduce Brother Ming, causing him to commit such a mistake. This princess must get rid of this bitch personally, and anyone who dares to go against this princess will only have one way to go, and that is death..."

Chen Ruotong is still alive, Zhihua has betrayed her, and Wu Qiming has cheated on her, which makes Liang Zhilan exhausted and furious.
