Fast and slow through the ever-changing life

Chapter 175 Rebellion After Sickness (8) Second Watch

Yuan Ling lowered her body and whispered in Sun Xunqi's ear, making her chuckle.

Sure enough, the little emperor fell asleep in the morning.Come to think of it, the ministers were very disappointed with the little emperor.

Everyone didn't sleep all night, and she can be full of energy even if she is not in good health.

"Your Majesty, Zi Zhaoyi and Yun Xiurong are asking to see you." Outside the gate of the palace, the palace maid reported.

"Let them in,"

"I've met your empress, good afternoon, empress." The two of them greeted Sun Xunqi as soon as they came in. After Sun Xunqi's brainwashing, the concubines were not wasting their time.

"Sit down without courtesy, what's the difficulty for the two of you to come to this palace?"

The royal family of Jiang Lin Kingdom has always been frugal, and the expenses in the palace are not so extravagant. When the first emperor was in power, the treasury was not abundant, and there were wars at the border, so there were too many places that needed money.

After the little emperor came to power, the regent still maintained frugality.The little emperor had some complaints about this, but he didn't dare to say it in front of the regent.Every time I can only talk to Pu Taifu, Pu Taifu comforts the little emperor, as long as he bears with it and kills the regent, no one cares about how much the little emperor wants to squander.

Taifu Pu is a person who enjoys life. The food and clothing at home are very luxurious, and even the food is much better than that in the palace.

Over the years, this Tai Tuo has embezzled a lot of money.

"It's like this. We have cut a lot of fabrics and made some clothes these days. Everyone likes them very much. We want to take these extra clothes to open a store."

Zi Zhaoyi likes to draw, and helped several sisters who are good at female celebrities to draw a lot of clothes design drawings. The clothes designed according to the drawings are especially liked by the concubines.

"Oh, it's all done. I was wondering how long you'll have to wait before you come to talk to me." Sun Xunqi was very pleased with the idea that the concubines were self-reliant.

The national treasury is not abundant, and if they want to live a good life, they can only find ways to earn more money by themselves.

"Have you thought about where you want to open a shop? Do you want Ben Gong to help you?"

The concubines in the harem want to open shops outside the palace, so they can only ask their natal mothers for help.

Once the natal family intervenes, part of the income will always be distributed.

The concubines of the various palaces have nothing in their private treasuries. Although they have enough food and clothing in the palace, they really don't have much money.

Sun Xunqi's private treasury is rich, and she can spend a lot of money to open a store.

"How about this, all the sisters in the palace, anyone who is willing to join can become a shareholder. There is a two-story shop outside the palace that happens to be vacant. It can be used as a shop. You can use it upstairs or downstairs. You toss. As for the manpower in the store, each palace can send one person to look at the store..."

Not only did Sun Xunqi leave the shop, but she also invested 5000 taels of silver in the stock.

The palaces began to get busy for this shop, and everyone put the things made in their palaces into the shop.

Empress Pavilion officially opened on June [-]th.

It has long been rumored in the circle of Jiang Linguo's noble lady Qianjin that the ladies in the palace are going to open a shop, which will sell ready-made clothes, jewelry, spices, calligraphy and paintings, etc.

Everything was designed and made by the concubines themselves, and it was sold out on the first day of opening by ladies from various families who came to support it.

After the little emperor heard about it, he felt very ashamed. Could it be that the salary he gave by the emperor could not support these women, so they ran to open shops one by one.

"Queen, can you tell me what this means?" The little emperor was ridiculed by several ministers today, and ran straight to Fengluan Palace full of anger.

In the past few days, the little emperor occasionally felt cold, his complexion was not good, and he coughed violently when he got angry.

"Yuan Ling, bring your Majesty a box of loquat paste. Your Majesty rushed to Fengluan Palace to question me about this matter?" Sun Xunqi put down the dividends from this month's Concubine Pavilion account book just sent by Zi Zhaoyi.

For a month, all the commodities in the Concubine Pavilion were in short supply.

Being able to buy things made by the concubines themselves has become the latest fashion in the entire capital of the Jiang Lin Kingdom.

Within a month, the Concubine Pavilion made a lot of money, and every participant received a lot of money. From the maids to the concubines, everyone was very satisfied and counted the money they got.

This is what they earned through their own labor, and they didn't ask others for it. Sure enough, this feeling is different, with a straight back.

With the example of the concubines, many noble ladies began to follow the example and began to be self-reliant.

They have paid so much for the men, but in the end they have never lived for themselves, and it is still too late.

The wives of several ministers' families are no longer keen on infighting, which has seriously affected their personal night life.

Only then did the trouble come before the emperor, hoping that the little emperor could take care of these self-improving women in the harem.

Sun Xunqi put the account book aside and said calmly: "Your Majesty, please sit down and don't be angry."

He took a sip of the tea handed over by the court lady and said casually, "Your Majesty is very busy with the Tai Tuo these days, so you don't pay attention to your body. Does your Majesty know about the famine in Manshan County? There hasn't been a single drop of rain in three months. How many farmers died, and how many people began to flee without food."

These information were all sent by the regent, and I think tomorrow he will clean up a group of deceiving officials in the court.

It has been half a month since fleeing famine, but the court has not received any letter.

The little emperor was thinking all day long about how to seize power from her father, how to join forces with the royalists to frame the regent, and didn't care about the lives of the people in the court at all, thinking about imperial power all day long!

Sun Xunqi's eyes became sharper. This little emperor is not as concerned about the life and death of the people as another vassal king who left his fiefdom.

The first emperor was also blind, so he didn't know what kind of virtue his son was?Orthodoxy is that important?

The prince was only one year older than the little emperor, and he was still five counties away from Manshan County, yet he allowed his fief to take in fleeing people.The prince opened the granaries in his fief, and all merchants were not allowed to raise prices.

If the vassal hadn't written a letter to Sun Renting, Sun Renting would still be kept in the dark.

The local officials of Sun Renting's family had long been imprisoned by those officials who deceived the top and the bottom, and it was impossible to report the disaster to Sun Renting.

"What did you say!" The little emperor was too surprised and knocked over the loquat paste that had just been placed on the small table.

"Your Majesty, why should you be so surprised? Zitong still has a piece of information that his father just sent here. Zitong has been hesitant to show this information to His Majesty. After all, it is related to His Majesty's mentor—Teacher Pu."

Sun Xunqi opened the drawer of the small table on the rug, and took out a thick stack of letters from it.

There are sixteen of these letters, each of which contains important secrets.

"Let's talk about the drought first. Why did the local officials in Manshan County hide the disaster? The whole Manshan County is now in desolation, waiting for the imperial court to relieve the disaster. I don't know how many people died. How many people are there? This means that the imperial courts were all killed on the road to the prosecution."

　Sun Xunqi: "The little emperor forced me to rebel. If I don't kill you, my surname will not be Sun."

　　King Qi nodded secretly in the distant fiefdom.
