Chapter 167 Backer

Emperor Deqing was a little disappointed when he saw that there were only some cloth umbrellas in the box, but when Li Luan'er opened the umbrellas embroidered with various delicate patterns and jewels one by one, and displayed them in the courtyard, Emperor Deqing saw the benefits.

These umbrellas are not as big as the oil-paper umbrellas that are usually used when it rains, and they look really small, but the workmanship is much better than those of them.

There are also those embroidery, which are really ingenious, and those inlaid with gems are also magnificent, very new and in line with the royal bearing.

He was overjoyed for a moment, and took an umbrella embroidered with dragon patterns and held it on the top of his head to feel it carefully: "It's a real sunshade, no wonder it's called a parasol." ”

Li Feng'er also took an umbrella with a peony pattern inlaid with cat's eye gemstones: "It's rare for someone with such a delicate mind to draw such umbrella patterns." ”

Li Luan'er pursed her lips and smiled: "The new house that our family bought in the capital, the Gu family next door was originally a famous big businessman in the south of the Yangtze River, and his daughter has a pair of skillful hands and a delicate heart, these are all drawn by her and asked people to do it, I look good, so I robbed a lot of people to give it to you, you have to accept my love." ”

Li Feng'er put down the peony-patterned umbrella and picked up a one embroidered with red plums: "I don't accept your love, but I accept the love of others." ”

"How much is this umbrella, the eldest lady left the bill when she left, I saw that it was good, so I kept these for nothing, but I couldn't ask for it in vain." After Emperor Deqing played, he asked about economic issues.

Li Luan'er hurriedly waved her hand: "What is for nothing, I have already paid for these umbrellas, they are my gifts to my sister, where can I ask for money again, if Your Majesty gives the silver, I will not keep it, and take them all out of the palace." ”

Emperor Deqing sighed when he heard this: "It's just this time, but not in the future, your family's life is not very good, the burden of the family is on you, you can save some good." ”

Li Luan'er knew that Emperor Deqing thought of those things in the small restaurant in Fenghuang County, at that time, Li Feng'er wanted money in order to save money in Beijing, and Emperor Deqing had to go to the kitchen to wash dishes and pay off debts, but it made him know some people's livelihood and suffering.

After a few jokes, the three of them sat down, and Emperor Deqing asked some questions about people's livelihood, and Li Luaner answered them truthfully one by one.

Emperor Deqing sighed to Li Feng'er again: "I am the most honest person in your family, unlike those courtiers who always deceive me, this is not false at all, these things that the eldest lady and I said today, those courtiers will never say." ”

"My sister has always been the most sincere, your majesty is still the sister who asked, if you ask your brother, your majesty and rest assured, my brother will answer in more detail." Li Feng'er lowered her head and pursed her lips and smiled.

Emperor Deqing was distressed again: "When my father was there, he taught me to be considerate of the people, and I also remembered it in my heart, since I ascended the throne, it is the money from the private treasury that is used in the cultivation palace and on weekdays except for daily food and living, but there is a limit to the money in this private treasury, and I don't know where to look for it after it is spent, and I can't bear to ask for the money of the user department, and those old ministers are talking again......"

Emperor Deqing had such a friendship with the Li family before, and because he was younger, he complained so much bitterly in front of Li Luan'er, and after complaining, he stopped talking about this, and persuaded Li Luan'er to taste more pastries in the palace for a while, and said that when Li Luan'er left, he would take more to take home.

It's just that he didn't say it, but Li Luan'er remembered it, and as soon as her eyes rolled, she had an idea.

"What do you think of this umbrella?"

"I think it's very good." Emperor Deqing thought for a while and replied.

Li Luan'er smiled: "If Your Majesty thinks it's good, you can use it for more use, in addition, also take out some to reward the minister, don't reward more, see which one is pleasing to the eye, give one, and stir up this umbrella. ”

Emperor Deqing still didn't understand: "What's the benefit of this?" ”

Li Luan'er knocked on the table: "Isn't your majesty worried about the money, this umbrella is made by the Gu family, the Gu family is a big businessman who has been inherited for more than a hundred years, his family has a thick foundation, and the business road is well paved, if the popularity of this umbrella rises, naturally his family will make a lot of money, and when the time comes, His Majesty will also be counted as a part, and the money earned will be shared with His Majesty, and his Majesty will not underestimate this business, I can't say it, I can make a lot of money." ”

"Really?" Emperor Deqing was overjoyed when he heard it.

He is a fun-loving emperor, plus Emperor Ming Qi is a wise king, and he has a long-term vision, and he did not teach Emperor Deqing to look down on Shangjia, but told him about the power of Shangjia, and taught him why the kings of previous dynasties suppressed and belittled merchants, so Emperor Deqing and Shangjia also have a set, not as pedantic as the world, only saying that businessmen should be severely suppressed for heavy profits.

Now when he heard how much silver he could earn from this little umbrella, he was naturally very interested.

"Natural." Li Luan'er nodded: "If there is one more matter, I will also talk to His Majesty." ”

"Say, I listen." When Emperor Deqing heard the benefits, he also became serious.

Li Feng'er poured a cup of tea for Emperor Deqing with a very good look, and listened to Li Luan'er say: "This Gu family is very family-owned, and it also has its own set on the way to buy and sell, and the inheritance of more than 100 years is not fake, but his uncle has been gone for two or three years, and now he has just come out of the filial piety period, because of Uncle Gu's failure, and the Gu family's eldest man is young, some can't support the faΓ§ade, and many people suppress them." ”

Speaking of this, Li Luan'er paused for a moment, looked at Emperor Deqing's face, and saw that he listened very seriously, so he continued: "The original Gu family and Jun Xianggong's family engaged in family affairs, but as soon as Uncle Gu went, Jun Xianggong regretted it, just now the two families retreated, although the Gu family is rich, but in the end, Jun Xianggong is powerful, their family is very afraid of Jun Xianggong's revenge, and they are looking for a support, in my opinion, it is not as good as looking for His Majesty to rely on, if His Majesty is interested, I will talk to his family and say, give His Majesty some dry shares, if his family's trading is not illegal, Majesty XiΓ  sheltered a little, first, his family is more convenient to do things, no need to be tied, and second, Majesty XiΓ  has also solved the burning disease. ”

Li Luan'er got up and saluted after speaking: "I'm not instigating His Majesty anything, but I'm really a neighbor with the Gu family, seeing that the people in his family are good, and seeing that their orphans and widows are having a hard time, I am afraid that they will be bullied, and I am also very worried in my heart. ”

"It's you Mo Wei again." Emperor Deqing didn't speak at first, and then felt that Li Luan'er said this very level, not saying that he was greedy for the family's wealth, but said that he was kind and couldn't bear to see the Gu family being bullied, and wanted to pull the Gu family a few points, so he felt that Li Luan'er was good, and the Gu family was also good, thinking about what Li Feng'er said about Mrs. Jin, Emperor Deqing was even more tired of Jun Mowei: "This Gu family is really pitiful, I also think that I can pull a handful, so, you go back and ask his family." ”

As soon as she heard that Emperor Deqing agreed, Li Luan'er was overjoyed, and hurriedly thanked Emperor Deqing: "Then I can thank Your Majesty for the Gu family." ”

"Let's be flat." Emperor Deqing waved his hand: "Feng'er also believes in her family in the palace, if the eldest lady is free, she will often come to the palace to accompany Feng'er in the future, and also talk to me about the outside world." ”

Li Luan'er was even more pleased, and understood that Emperor Deqing had asked her to be an intermediary with the Gu family, so she hurriedly agreed.

While he was talking, someone from Shou'an Palace came to spread the word, saying that the Queen Mother wanted to see Li Luan'er.

As soon as Li Luan'er heard this, she quickly got up and tidied up her appearance, and Li Feng'er also tidied up, so she was going to take Li Luan'er to Shou'an Palace to ask for peace, Emperor Deqing saw this, and said with a smile: "The queen mother is the most kind, the eldest lady doesn't have to worry, I have nothing to do, and I will go with you." ”

Li Luan'er couldn't refuse, so she had to follow Emperor Deqing.

Yongxin Palace is not very far from Shou'an Palace, the three of them with a line of palace eunuchs entered Shou'an Palace in a short time, and saw two aunts walking out of Shou'an Palace, the official family and Li Feng'er have great respect for them, Li Feng'er called them Aunt Bai Aunt Zheng, Li Luan'er knew that this must be the queen mother's henchman, so he also greeted the two aunts.

When she entered the Shou'an Palace, she felt that it was not as cool as Li Feng'er's Yongxin Palace, Li Luan'er thought for a moment and understood, it was about the queen mother who was older, and she may have hurt her foundation when she was young, and she was afraid that she would not be able to stand it in too shady places, so she didn't dare to use ice more.

She looked up slightly, and saw that the queen mother sitting on the couch was wearing a dark purple dress, beautiful and graceful, very beautiful and beautiful, very beautiful peony country, and said that it was strange that the first emperor had treated the queen mother with deep love and righteousness in his life, such a beauty was naturally incomparable to others, and saw that the queen mother was very young on her face, with a smile on her face, only a pair of eyes were very energetic, and she knew that this must be a shrewd person.

Li Luan'er saluted the Queen Mother according to the rules, and heard the Queen Mother say urgently: "Come over and tell me to take a look, I often hear Feng Yatou talk about your achievements, and I can't wait to see you soon." ”

The queen mother calls herself me, not a mourner, which makes Li Luan'er unexpected.

She hurriedly took a few steps forward, and the Queen Mother had already taken her hand to take a closer look, and exclaimed: "I am also surprised that such a peugeot beauty can hunt tigers and bears." ”

The queen mother saw that Li Luan'er was very well-behaved, and she had been lowering her eyebrows and pleasing to her eyes, and she saw that her face was fair and delicate, but she had a healthy flush, her hands were soft to the touch, but she could touch them carefully, and there were thin calluses in the palms of her hands.

After seeing Li Luan'er, the Queen Mother asked someone to sit down, and when Li Luan'er sat down, she joked again: "Feng girl, are you afraid that I am the dominatrix, and I can still eat your sister, not only did you accompany me, but even the emperor was pulled by you to sit down." ”

Li Feng'er got up and said with a smile: "It's not to accompany my sister, it's really that Feng Yatou also misses the Queen Mother, so she came over to ask for peace, and the same is true for Your Majesty." ”

Emperor Deqing laughed on the side: "What Feng'er said is very true. ”

The Queen Mother glared at him: "I see that you don't think of me, a lonely old woman, but you must think of my good things here." ”

Li Feng'er hurriedly said: "Speaking of good objects, my sister can bring good objects when she enters the palace this time, and the Queen Mother will take a closer look at them in a while." ”R1152
