Father, I really don’t want to be the emperor

Ning Fan was stunned when he heard the butler's words.

Yesterday I made a good deal, why did I suddenly change my mind?

"Steward Wang, may I ask, what exactly is wrong with Miss Xiao? Is it a cough, a runny nose, or a fever?"

Ning Fan said with concern.

In this day and age, without anti-inflammatory drugs, a minor cold can be fatal.

So Ning Fan was very nervous when he heard that Xiao Lingxi was ill.

"Your Highness the Sixth Prince, please come back!"

The housekeeper said angrily.

In his eyes, Ning Fan is a big pervert. He must guard against such a person approaching the young lady!

Otherwise, you will be failing the master's trust.

"Okay, please, Butler Wang, tell Miss Xiao that when she recovers, I will teach her the instant noodle making techniques."

Ning Fan said a little disappointed.

After that, Ning Fan didn't bother and turned around to leave somewhat gloomily.

In a room on the second floor, Xiao Lingxi saw Ning Fan's somewhat lonely back, and suddenly her heart ached slightly.

Ning Fan does not look like a heinous person.

But why is the rumored sixth prince so miserable?

"Miss, I advise you to forget it! Being too close to someone like the Sixth Prince will tarnish your reputation! After all, you are a young lady who has not yet left the government. Once your reputation is ruined, how can you marry in the future?"

Personal maid Yu Yu noticed her master's thoughts and quickly persuaded her.

"Okay... I just want to know if he invented that instant noodles. That thing is really important."

Xiao Lingxi bit her lip and said.

"Miss, why don't you just let me go! If she dares to touch me, I will castrate her!"

Xiaoyu volunteered.

"Pfft!"

"Xiaoyu, there's no need to be so cruel!"

Xiao Lingxi couldn't help but laugh.

"Miss, you are a wealthy person. It's best not to come into contact with such a notorious person. Xiaoyu is just a maid, so I have no worries in this regard! Besides, I, Xiaoyu, know some kung fu. If he really wants to do something wrong, I will Kill him first, then commit suicide!"

Xiaoyu's pretty face is full of determination.

"Then why are you doing this? It's so dangerous, I won't let you go."

Xiao Lingxi was a little worried.

"Conveniently facing the master is very important, and it is very important for the frontline soldiers. Let me, Xiaoyu, go to the Longtan Tiger's Den instead of the young lady! Don't worry, young lady, I know Kung Fu, no problem."

Xiaoyu said.

"Okay, be careful! The method of making instant noodles must be kept secret. If it is learned by an enemy country, it will cause unimaginable damage to our great wealth! It must be mastered as soon as possible!"

Xiao Lingxi hesitated for a while, then finally gritted her teeth and said.

……

"I told you, our Highness must be able to capture it today and win Miss Xiao's trust!"

"Hehe, it won't take long before our Highness can stand up!"

The two dogs danced excitedly.

After Ning Fan left, Ergou and several eunuchs were gathering together to blow water, spitting foam and stars flying all over the sky.

"That's right, we believe what Brother Gou says!"

"Yes, His Highness has made a comeback, and we will also rise with the rising tide! In the future, we will not be bullied by others when we go out."

"Well, Zhao Guang almost scared me to death last time."

An eunuch touched his chest and said coquettishly.

"Have you guys finished your work?"

Ning Fan suddenly appeared with a dark face, scaring several eunuchs to the point where their urine flew out of their nostrils.

"Your Highness, didn't you go to the Xiao Mansion to have a romantic relationship with the young lady of the Xiao family..."

Ergou can't pick up which pot.

"You bastard will have to be chopped into pieces by me sooner or later."

Ning Fan was very unhappy and walked directly into the room with a dark face.

"Let's go, let's spread out. After finishing today's work, go and sew clothes and do handicrafts."

As Ning Fan's personal companion, Ergou is also considered the housekeeper in the house.

"Sewing clothes and doing crafts? What is that?"

Although Ning Fan was in a bad mood after being rejected, he still asked curiously.

"Your Highness, your salary has been cut off, and there are no valuable things that can be pawned in the house. Now it is a problem for us to eat. So, I asked everyone to go to the streets to pick up some jobs and earn money to make ends meet..."

Ergou smiled honestly.

"Ugh…"

Ning Fan smiled bitterly and sighed.

After all, he is a prince, but he is reduced to having a bunch of servants work to support his family?

"Your Highness, you really don't have to worry about us. We are just the ones doing the hard work. This little bit of work is nothing to everyone!"

Ergou said with a smile.

Several young eunuchs around him also agreed: "Yes, Your Highness, you are so considerate of us, we are willing to die for Your Highness."

"Don't say that, everyone. I will find a way and won't make it so hard for everyone."

Ning Fan shook his head.

Just as he was about to leave, he saw several eunuchs washing clothes in the yard.

A eunuch picked up a large bag of black ashes and poured it into the basin, which caught Ning Fan's attention.

"Xiao Guizi, what are you doing? You don't use washing powder to wash clothes. What do you mean by adding ash to them?"

Ning Fan asked curiously.

"Your Highness, what is... washing powder?"

Xiao Guizi looked confused.

Ning Fan almost forgot that there may not be washing powder in this era.

He picked up the bag of black ash and took a closer look, and found that it was plant ash.

Ning Fan was a top student and immediately understood the principle of adding plant ash to wash clothes.

This stuff is rich in potassium carbonate, which is alkaline and has certain decontamination capabilities.

"Ergou, go and get me some stove ashes and some lard immediately. I need more."

Ning Fan's eyes lit up and he thought of a way to make money.

This is Anjing, the capital of Dakang, and it is also the most prosperous place in Dakang, where dignitaries gather!

Their clothes are all made of silk and satin. Without effective decontamination methods, these clothes will be washed frequently and will be damaged quickly.

If you make soap with rich foam and strong decontamination power, you may become rich overnight!

"Your Highness, what do you want those things for?"

Ergou looked confused.

"Go if you are told, don't talk nonsense!"

A smile appeared on Ning Fan's face again.

If you want to participate in the battle for the heir, you don't have the power now, but you can first have the money.

As long as you have money, things will be easier!

As the saying goes, money can make the world go round!

As for Xiao Lingxi, Ning Fan was not in a hurry.

He had a bad reputation before, so getting Xiao Lingxi to change his mind would not happen overnight. He just had to take his time.

Solve the problem of survival first, and then solve the problem of development.

Under Ning Fan's command, Ergou, as the main force, began to sift a large amount of kitchen ashes.

Xiao Guizi, a small table, a small stool and other eunuchs began to set up a large pot to boil lard.

The fragrant smell filled the entire yard.
