Once the Crown Prince Joins In - #358 - 358: This is a good thing falling from the sky
The emperor strode to the queen and sat down, and asked everyone to take their seats. Then he turned to look at Su Xinyi, the smile on his face did not change, and asked with a smile: Oh, what do you want to say, the princess?
Su Xinyi said with a stupefied face, Father, can I take Prince Rong out for a while first?
emperor:……
King Rong:……
Everyone:…
King Rong gritted his teeth and looked at Su Xinyi, Okay, you are cruel, but I didn’t expect her to be so bold in front of her father. How dare she say such things?
Not to mention King Rong, everyone except the prince was surprised by Su Xinyi’s boldness, and all eyes fell on her for a while. New𝟔𝟗Book Bar𝟨𝟫𝒔𝒉𝒖𝒙.𝒄𝒐𝒎
Su Xinyi seemed completely unaware and still looked at His Majesty.
The queen was thinking, this is really my good stepdaughter-in-law. This stab almost made her gasp.
The emperor looked at Su Xinyi and laughed, Why, you still want to beat my son in front of me? How brave you are.
Su Xinyi said with a fearless look and a somewhat righteous look: Father, you have heard that the seventh brother is making such nonsense and wants to embarrass me in front of you. Shouldn’t this be a lesson? Besides, my daughter-in-law listened to His Highness the Crown Prince’s suggestion. After a few words, the seventh brother has indeed been able to do a lot this year. I took the initiative to bring up the Six Shang Bureau matters before to share your worries. I can obviously do it well, but you have to create extra troubles and ask me to do it. You can’t watch your daughter-in-law being bullied by the seventh brother. You’re not allowed to fight back, right? I’ve never suffered a loss, as you all know.”
The emperor looked at Su Xinyi angrily. His temper was exactly the same as that of Su Chun.
There is no need to fight in these great days. He is about to get a wife. How can I save some face for him? If you have any other ideas, I will listen to it.
After hearing the emperor’s words, she really thought that Su Xinyi had suffered a loss and left her to deal with Prince Rong. The expression on Concubine Li’s face changed instantly, and Prince Xiang’s expression became a little solemn as well.
Concubine Li went to see the queen again. The queen always protected her children. This time Su Xinyi bullied King Rong like this. Could it be that the queen just ignored her?
Unexpectedly, Concubine Li looked over and saw that the queen was looking at King Rong with a dissatisfied look on her face. She did not look angry at all because of Su Xinyi’s words. This made her so angry that everyone went crazy.
After hearing the emperor’s words, Su Xinyi turned to look at the prince.
The prince felt Su Xinyi’s gaze and turned to look at her.
Su Xinyi leaned forward slightly and said something in the ear of the prince. The prince nodded slightly.
Then, everyone listened as Su Xinyi looked at His Majesty and said: Father, my daughter-in-law has thought about it. Today, my daughter-in-law comes to pay her respects to her mother. She also heard that her mother is worried about whether the marriage of the sixth, seventh and ninth brothers can be held smoothly. After all, the marriages of the younger brothers are not that far apart.
In the past, there was no need to worry about the Liu Shang Bureau running well. Now, something happened to the Liu Shang Bureau, and there was a new temporary government office in the Inner Palace. The handover of many things was chaotic. Mr. Huang was not in charge of these things before, and some things were not easy. To start with, the daughter-in-law helps the mother with many things, and she really doesn’t know who to turn to.
Since the seventh brother is so capable, do you think you can let him go to the Inner Palace to take charge first? At least finish these weddings first, which will give the seventh brother a chance to show off. Doesn’t he say that he is very capable?
King Rong almost jumped up and said immediately: Father, can’t you agree that I can’t do anything about the Six Shang Bureau and the Inner Palace?
As long as he thinks about how the harem has to look for him when eating, drinking, and having sex, and how several princes have to look for him for their marriages, he can think of the dark days he will have in the future, and it is simply impossible to live.
Su Xinyi is cruel enough.
The emperor couldn’t help but sneer when he saw Prince Rong like this, I think what the Crown Princess said is somewhat reasonable. You said you don’t do business all day long, so you know how to attract cats and dogs. If you have the energy, just go to the Inner Palace. .”
King Rong looked like he was struck by lightning, Father, you are my biological father, how can you turn your elbows outward?
Seventh brother, how can you say that, turn away? Are you saying that I am an outsider? Su Xinyi looked at Rong Wang and smiled tenderly.
King Rong shivered with fright. Su Xinyi might as well have beaten him for laughing. He immediately said: Sister-in-law, you heard wrong. I didn’t say that. I meant that this job is very good. It’s just me. Humans can’t do it. You see, the third brother is already married and has nothing to do, so let him come too.
One person’s suffering is not as good as everyone’s suffering. The next one is the same!
King Wu didn’t expect that such a thing could happen to him. He was stunned for a moment, then immediately stood up and wanted to refuse. Is he allowed to go to a place like the Inner Palace?
Before King Wu could speak, he heard His Majesty speak first, What King Rong said makes some sense. Now that you are all going to start a family, it’s time to do something serious in the future. After saying that, he looked at King Wu and said, Third brother, You and your seventh brother should work together to arrange the marriages of your brothers.
King Wu did not dare to refuse, so he stepped forward and agreed, My son, I will obey my father’s will.
What his father said was also interesting. He was asked to take care of the marriages of his younger brothers, which meant that he couldn’t interfere in other matters. He just didn’t want to get involved, so he felt slightly relieved.
King Rong immediately jumped to King Wu, Third brother, good third brother, I will point to you from now on.
King Wu:……
The queen glanced at Su Xinyi thoughtfully. She had said a few words to Su Xinyi in the morning, but she didn’t really mean it. But now Su Xinyi proposed to let King Rong go to the inner court. She didn’t think it was an unintentional move. .
The queen felt a little happy. She protected Su Xinyi and taught her the affairs of the harem seriously. She was a conscientious person.
If you know what you’re worried about, why don’t you relieve her now?
Although she has no objection to Huang Zhongsheng, it is convenient for her to use her own people in her territory. Now that her son has gone to the inner court, he is definitely not helping Huang Zhongsheng. Now it is a turn of events. Huang Zhongsheng is helping his son, which makes her I feel much more comfortable.
Your Majesty seemed to have decided on this matter after watching Su Xinyi and King Rong quarreling, but she did not think that His Majesty was acting on a whim.
The Queen is in a very good mood now. His Majesty is willing to give her face, her son is willing to share her worries, and the Crown Princess is willing to deal with her. This life is really satisfying.
As expected, she took a step back. It was a pity before, but now that pity is gone.
Just seeing how his stupid son was dealt with by Su Xinyi in just a few words, it would be easier to dream if he expected him to become the prince.
Concubine Qi Xian and Prince Jing did not speak from the beginning to the end. The two mother and son looked at each other, and then sat there calmly watching the play with a smile on their faces.
Concubine Ruan Ming had an unexpected joy. She did not expect that her son would get such a job. Although it was only temporary, being able to go to the Inner Palace was at least a sign of the trust of His Majesty and the Crown Prince in their son. This was a good start.
The Inner Palace is a newly built yamen, and the general manager is Huang Zhongsheng, so it is equivalent to the prince’s territory. Although it was the prince’s concubine who let Prince Rong in, the prince’s concubine clearly discussed it with the prince before, and only spoke with the prince’s approval.
Concubine Ruan Ming knew very well that even if the king was allowed to come in, even if he was to be the general manager, it would most likely be just a title. The real person in charge was Huang Zhongsheng. As for her son, His Majesty said that he would only take care of the marriages of a few princes. It would touch the prince’s interests, have a decent job, and be able to show off in front of His Majesty and the prince. I couldn’t be more satisfied.
This is a blessing from heaven.
It was true that she surrendered to the Queen. If King Rong hadn’t spoken out, her son would never have been so lucky.
Ji Yun looked at Concubine Ruan Ming, whose face was full of joy, then at her husband, whose expression remained the same, and then at the Crown Princess and others opposite. She lowered her head slightly, with other thoughts in her eyes.
King Rong didn’t care what others thought. He ran back to the prince from King Wu, asked the palace servants to add an extra seat, and sat down immediately.
Su Xinyi and the prince both looked at him speechlessly. King Rong did not feel that he was an eyesore at all, and said to the prince: Brother, you are so unkind. I am your brother. You can’t always help your wife but not your brother. .”
The corners of the prince’s mouth twitched, he looked at King Rong and said, Speak seriously.
King Rong snorted, This is what I’m talking about.
The emperor glanced at King Rong and said, You weren’t talking about purchasing before, but now go on and let me hear what good ideas you have.
King Rong’s face turned dark. He thought he had escaped a disaster, but he didn’t expect that there would be a disaster within a disaster.
Su Xinyi lowered his head and snickered while drinking tea, I’ll let you show off.
King Rong grimaced, Father, this is a family banquet today. Can we not talk about political affairs? Can you let your son relax?
No, I have nothing to do. I want to listen to you brag to relieve my boredom. Tell me.
King Rong was angry and glared at Su Xinyi.
It’s all your fault.
The prince turned slightly to block King Rong’s sight, raised his eyes and looked at him, Seventh brother, let’s start.
King Rong had a sad face, he couldn’t live this day.
Don’t tell me, King Rong is really not afraid this time, and he is not all bragging. This time he went out, he really gained knowledge and learned a lot of things. It really sounds like that.
The purchasing of the Six Shang Bureau is a separate matter. Purchasing has always been the most lucrative job. Otherwise, how could there be such a thing as one tael of silver and one egg? Prince Rong wanted to curse when he mentioned this.
The people of the Six Shang Bureau are really brave. Do they think that we royal people are fools? If we dare to give one tael of silver a piece, then wouldn’t we be unable to afford the chickens, ducks and geese? What about a separate poultry farm? This How much money can be spent and how many people can be used to raise these things every year? There is a lot of water here. Father, my son was so angry when he saw the account book that I jumped three feet in place. I wish I could eat those people in and out. The shit was chopped into pieces.”
King Rong was really angry, not only because of his greed for money, but because those people had fooled them into thinking they were fools.
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. King Rong then added: My son is taking the caravan south this time. My son has personally asked about the prices of goods in the south one by one on the streets. The two river basins in the south are vast and rich in products. There are more things than the capital city. It’s cheap. Goods from the south go north, so why are there so many businessmen doing this even though they’re so far away? It’s because it’s profitable.”
The emperor heard that King Rong could really say something, and he immediately became interested, Oh? You go to the street and ask in person?
That’s not true. Father, you don’t know how difficult it is for Su Xinyi… my sister-in-law to deal with. If I don’t ask her in person, she will ask me a few questions and I’ll reveal the secret. Isn’t this the case of delivering the clue to her door in person and just waiting for her? Take care of me? King Rong replied confidently.
The emperor was angry, Is that why you asked in person?
King Rong’s heart froze, and he immediately added, Of course not, I just said it casually, don’t be angry. Look, haven’t I done all the business? I was thinking about the caravan. There is a lot of potential for things. Although the officials do not compete with the people for profit, isn’t it because our imperial court is poor? Now that the inner court is being built, I am thinking that I can separate the procurement part separately and form a royal caravan. What do you think, father?
I don’t think so. The emperor snorted, knowing that he dared to do this without competing with the people, wouldn’t he be ridiculed by the world.
Father, the court can’t do it, but my son can do it. You can give this part to me alone, and I will make a lot of money for you, so that you won’t have to cry for poverty as soon as the war with the Tatars starts. King Rong said immediately, leading a caravan is comparable to being in the army. Being an official in the DPRK is much more interesting. My son will give you a face and make you straighten up.
The queen really didn’t see that her son was really promising. Everyone wanted to be an official, but he just wanted to be a businessman. It was hopeless.
The emperor was so angry that he laughed, looked at King Rong and said: What a big tone, how much money can you make for me?
King Rong coughed lightly, Father, the largest grain merchant in the south earns millions of dollars a year.
As soon as these words came out, the whole hall was silent.
Concubine Li glanced at her son, Prince Xiang pursed his lips slightly, and the eyes of mother and son separated immediately.
Nonsense, how much grain do you have to sell to make so much money? The emperor already knew what his son wanted to say, because of the previous issue of the government granary being hollowed out, Okay, let’s discuss this later.
King Rong happened to be excited and didn’t want to give up this opportunity. When he opened his mouth again, his elder brother glanced at him and he had to shut up in frustration.
At this time, the banquet was about to begin, and the palace people served fine wine and delicacies like a stream.
Concubine Li couldn’t get a word in when talking about these things before. Now she had the opportunity to talk to His Majesty about the September climb, and the atmosphere in the palace suddenly became lively again.
Su Xinyi thought that Concubine Li really knew something about His Majesty and knew what to say and do to make His Majesty happy.
It is a folk custom to climb a mountain on September 9th. The nobles in the palace also look forward to this day to leave the palace for a break, so they look forward to it every year. However, they are not able to go out every year. It depends on whether His Majesty is available.
It happened that His Majesty could spare some time this year. When Concubine Li mentioned this, His Majesty nodded in agreement. As a result, the atmosphere in the palace became more and more enthusiastic. Even Concubine Qi Xian and Concubine Ruan Ming were looking forward to it happily.
The family banquet went smoothly. After the meal, His Majesty took the crown prince and King Rong to go first. King Jing and King Wu also left immediately. Ji Yun naturally left with King Wu.
Su Xinyi also wanted to leave, but was kept by the queen.
Concubine Li Gui took the first step, and Concubine Ruan Ming and Concubine Qi Xian also left immediately.
Su Xinyi looked at the queen and said with a smile: Mother, do you have any other orders?
