Little Dandy, He's a Little Good

On the day when the Li Chu's edict came down, Rong Zhuo was in the Xunhuan Building.

After Yu Jingdu showed him the "balm" earlier, Rong Zhuo went to talk to Sister Hua.

Sister Hua's people improved the formula of the balm according to Rong Zhuoti's request, and made several versions.Today Rong Zhuo came to pick out one of these improved balms and send it to Beijiang as a moisturizing cream.

"Qingyu, which one do you think is better?" Rong Zhuo asked Qingyu.

Qingyu chose a box of balm from the table and handed it to Rong Zhuo, "I think this is good."

Not long ago, Rong Zhuo accidentally noticed that Qingyu was quite careful, so he took her by his side to help.

Although Qingyu didn't study much before, she was very talented in arithmetic, so Rong Zhuo asked him to help the caravan's shipment and storage.Later, the girl Duan Zheng was close to, named Xiao Tang, also volunteered to come to the caravan to help.

Although the two of them couldn't do much physical work, they were more careful and responsible.

And caravans are currently employing people, and there are many inconspicuous but important things that need people to do.

Qingyu even made a plan, to help the caravan when she is busy, and continue to do embroidery work for the girls in Xunhuanlou when she is free, and when she has saved enough money to redeem herself, she will invest in Rong Zhuo when she earns money firm.

Rong Zhuo chose the one that he thought was good, and compared it with the one chosen by Qingyu, and asked people about the difference and cost of the two formulas, and finally decided on the one chosen by Qingyu.

As soon as the two came out of the room, they bumped into Sister Hua who was oncoming.

Sister Hua walked in front of Rong Zhuo with a smile on her face, and said to him in a low voice: "His Royal Highness Yan Wang has been appointed as the crown prince."

Although Rong Zhuo had been prepared for a long time, when he really heard the news, he still couldn't hide his excitement.

He knew that when he saw Yu Jingdu again, he would no longer be the banquet king, but the prince.

"Young Master Rong?" Seeing him in a daze, Sister Hua asked, "Are you okay?"

"I'm fine, I'll trouble Sister Hua for today's affairs." Rong Zhuo said and cupped his hands towards her.

Sister Hua didn't want to say much in front of other people, so she bowed back to Rong Zhuo and went to work.

Rong Zhuo took Qingyu out of the Xunhuan Building, and he could hear others talking about the new prince in the street.

While he was happy for Yu Jingdu, he felt a little unreal.

"That day you asked me to find a beggar to pass on to Mr. Huaben, is it useful?" Qingyu asked Rong Zhuo.

Rong Zhuo thought for a while, "I don't know, but it doesn't help anyway."

"That's good." Qingyu nodded and didn't say anything more.

He is not usually an inquisitive person, and he will never ask more about things that Rong Zhuo does not take the initiative to say.

"Let's go, I'll take you to Jiangyue Zhai for a good meal." Rong Zhuo said.

Hearing this, Qingyu hurriedly followed him to Jiang Yuezhai honestly, but she didn't know if it was her own illusion, Qingyu felt that Young Master Rong was a bit contradictory today.

He was obviously happy when he heard that His Royal Highness Yan Wang was appointed as the new crown prince.

But then I don't know what I thought of, and the whole person was a little lost.

the other side.

Yu Jingdu was listening to the emperor's chatter.

The emperor seemed to be quite emotional today, and he didn't discuss matters with the courtiers after he left the court, leaving only Yu Jingdu alone.

There were quite a few courtiers who wanted to congratulate Yu Jingdu, but they had no choice but to give up because they didn't find the opportunity.

"During your coronation ceremony, it took a long time to make up the ceremony because you were far away from Beijiang." The emperor said, "It's the same now that the crown prince is standing. Originally, after your birthday, the imperial edict should have been issued. I didn't expect the queen to pass away suddenly. It took so long."

"It's okay." Yu Jingdu said lightly.

The emperor said this to him with all his heart and soul, originally thinking that Yu Jingdu could comfort him and say something like "it's not your fault", but he didn't expect him to babble for a long time, and only got a sentence from the other party "No problem".

"Jingdu, don't worry, this is the grand ceremony for the establishment of the crown prince. I will let the Ministry of Rites prepare it well, and I will not wrong you." The emperor said again.

Yu Jingdu raised his eyes to look at him, and said, "The border war is tense, hasn't the father decided to let his ministers fight?"

The emperor sighed when he heard the words, and put on a tangled and distressed look.

Yu Jingdu knew that the emperor had already made up his mind when he heard Laifu read out the edict to establish the crown prince.

Now when he sees the other party like this, he just feels disgusted.

Yu Jingdu could even think of what the emperor was thinking about when he decided to establish the crown prince today.As a father, what he cares most about is not whether he will lose his son, but how to choose to maximize his benefits.

"Jingdu." The emperor said, his voice was somewhat sad.

"Father." Yu Jingdu knew that he was waiting for him to pass the steps, so he reluctantly said: "The war does not wait for anyone, please make a decision as soon as possible."

Hearing this, the emperor opened his mouth and said: "I have thought about what you said when you asked for Ying that day. There is indeed no one in this court who is braver than you and is more suitable to take up this burden, so I allow you to go to the border gate." .”

"Thank you, Father." Yu Jingdu knelt down on one knee and saluted him.

"But this grand ceremony..."

"Let's talk about it on the day of my minister's triumphant return." Yu Jingdu said.

"Alright." The emperor said, "It's just that I have wronged you..."

Yu Jingdu didn't make a sound, and he didn't say anything about not being wronged. At this moment, he needs the emperor's guilt.

So he wouldn't say anything to reduce the other party's guilt. On the contrary, he deliberately put on a wronged look, for fear that the emperor would not know that he had treated his son badly.

"What request do you have this time, just ask, Father will definitely allow you." The emperor said.

"My son has no other requirements, I just hope that the household department can provide more military supplies for the Northern Army."

"It's natural." The emperor said: "I will order someone to show you the list of military supplies compiled by the Ministry of Finance first, and if you are dissatisfied, you can mention it, and I will ask someone to do it."

"Thank you, Father." After Yu Jingdu finished speaking, he bowed to him again.

Probably because Yu Jingdu's request was indeed too simple, the emperor felt very sorry.

So after Yu Jingdu left that day, he specially announced the people in the household department, and repeatedly mentioned that the military supplies allocated to the Beibei Army must be sufficient.

In fact, it doesn't need to be said by him, the people in the household department dare not neglect.

In the past, the Northern Army was not loved by its father or mother, but now with the support of the new crown prince, how would they dare to hold back anything?

And what is even more unexpected is that the original banquet palace, and now the new prince's palace, news came out that night:

The Prince's Mansion does not accept ordinary congratulatory gifts, but only accepts things that can be converted into military supplies.

As soon as the news came out, most of the capital was shocked.

Xindao, the new Crown Prince, is really interesting.

However, this saved a lot of people's effort. Originally, they had to figure out what the new crown prince liked, but now it was a good thing.Moreover, among the civil and military officials, there are still a group of people who are not keen on flattering and just go through the motions. They negotiated a compromise number, just like a meal with a gift, one person and one silver as a congratulatory gift, which was directly sent to the Prince's Mansion.

When the emperor heard the news, he was a little unhappy.

By doing this, Yu Jingdu was obviously saying that the Ministry of Households did not have enough military supplies for the Beibei Army?

But his unhappiness soon faded away.

Thinking of what Yu Jingdu had suffered in the Northern Garrison Army, and thinking that the other party was about to go to the border to fight for him, how could he have the heart to blame the other party?

And Yu Jingdu's operation directly saved Rong Zhuo a lot of effort.

The other party didn't even have to think about it, and directly asked Duan Chengxing to come forward and send a gift list to the Prince's Mansion.

Listed on the gift list was a batch of body cream and chilblain cream, as well as medicine for gold sores.

These things are sent out by their business, and they are also considered counterparts.

In addition, Yu Jingdu had clearly recruited the Duan family before, so Duan Chengxing's move would not make people suspicious at all.And with Duan Chengxing's beginning, the next day, the Song family drugstore also sent a gift list, which contained a batch of medicinal materials.

Seeing this, other businesses also followed suit and sent gift lists.

Firstly, they took the opportunity to get close to the new prince, and secondly, they were doing their part for the border war.

The only people in the whole capital who are troubled by this are probably the people from the household department.

They were already worried about the provision of military supplies for the Northern Army. If there was less, they were afraid of offending Jing Du, and if there were too many, they were afraid that they would empty the treasury and make it difficult to explain in the future.And this batch of military supplies was obtained by Yu Jingdu privately, and they didn't dare to offset the originally allocated range, and had to arrange additional transportation of vehicles, horses and personnel.

To make matters worse, Yu Jingdu bluntly said that there were too few medicinal materials after reading their first batch of allocated military supplies list.

The emperor thought of the fact that Yu Jingdu was seriously injured before, and felt that the medicinal materials could not be deducted, so he issued a death order to the people in the household department, requiring that the medicinal materials must be in full.

This can worry the people in the Ministry of household affairs to death.

God knows that the medicinal materials they allocated before didn't even have the full amount.

Now they are suddenly asked to allocate a sufficient amount of medicinal materials, and the transportation of horses and horses alone is a huge expense.

But they couldn't complain to the emperor, otherwise, once Yu Jingdu turned over the old account, they would be unable to eat and walk away.

Just when the people in the household department were at a loss, Rong Zhuo brought Duan Zheng to the door...

"They have long heard about the cooperation between us and the Song family pharmacy to make medicines, but they dare not make this idea. They are afraid that they will not be able to convince you, but will make you feel that they are being lazy." Rong Zhuo said to Yu Jingdu: "I just told them that my cousin and Yan Wang... are very familiar with the current Crown Prince, and they are relieved to leave this matter to me!"

Yu Jingdu looked at him with burning eyes, "So you came to the Prince's Mansion today to discuss serious matters with me?"

Since the news of the war, he has been so busy every day that his feet are not touching the ground, and Rong Zhuo is also busy with his own affairs, so they have not been able to meet each other properly.

Even when Yu Jingdu became the prince, Rong Zhuo hadn't had time to congratulate him.

And in the past few days, Yu Jingdu was scratching his head and scratching his head with thoughts of Rongzhuo, he went to the house twice at night but didn't catch anyone.

"How dare I come to your house without some excuse?" Rong Zhuo said, "However, the people from the household department promised me that if they can persuade you to change all the medicinal materials into medicines, they will take all the errands of medicine and delivery. Give it to me. I didn’t cheat them on the price, but asked them to pay half of the money first.”

Yu Jingdu laughed, "Your cousin is backed by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, are you still afraid that the people in the household department will owe you money?"

"Only my cousin has His Royal Highness backing me?" Rong Zhuo walked up to him and hooked his fingers with one hand, "Won't His Royal Highness support me?"

Yu Jingdu's breath stopped, and he turned his head to glance at the direction outside the door.

At this moment, his reason has been hovering on the verge of losing control, and he can't stand the young man's teasing.

"Li Feng!" Yu Jingdu said loudly towards the direction of the door, "Tell the people in the Ministry of War to come back two hours later."

Rong Zhuo was startled, and hurriedly said: "Don't...don't go!"

Li Feng outside the door raised his eyebrows when he heard the words, he didn't know whether to go or not.

He did know that His Highness had an appointment to talk about things, and they were probably almost at the gate of the mansion by now.

But obviously, as soon as Young Master Rong came, their Highnesses were not in the mood to talk about things.

"Are you trying to run away?" Yu Jingdu took Rong Zhuo's hand and put it on his body, "Young Master Rong, it's not good for you to provoke someone irresponsible?"

Rong Zhuo blushed, and said in a low voice: "I just came to see you, and I will go to see Sister Hua later, there are some things that I need to finalize with her urgently."

Yu Jingdu held him in his arms, looking very conflicted.

"Talk to them about business first. Tonight...I'll wait for you in the house at night." Rong Zhuo said.

Yu Jingdu had no choice but to take a deep breath when he heard the words. He was afraid that he would lose control, so he didn't dare to kiss the other party, so he let him go.
